      Ok, here is a patch for bonding against 2.4.20-pre7.  This gets rid
of the MII_whatever macros, wraps ioctl() to make it less bad, and replaces
a couple of magic numbers with friendly labels.

      Comments?


The patch looks ok but doesn't address the core problem that the link state is checked in interrupt context.
