Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6 0/5] bonding: Fixes and updates
Date: Friday, June 13, 2008 - 6:11 pm

Five patches for bonding; these apply to net-next-2.6.

	Patches 1 - 3 comprise support for NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER
notifiers; the first patch adds the define, the second cleans up part of
bonding in preparation for the notifier call, and the third adds the
notifier call itself.

	Patch 4 cleans up and improves previously added support for
specifying the number of gratuitous ARPs to be issued at failover time for
the active-backup mode.

	Patch 5 permits specifying max_bonds as zero (creating no bond0
device).  Also provides an API from net/core to create and destroy files
in net_class so that /sys/class/net/bonding_masters will be created.  This
was previously done by backtracking from the first bonding device's sysfs
information (dev->dev.class).

	Please apply.

	-J
