    [PATCH] bonding: Don't release slaves when master is admin down · 70298705

    When a bonding netdevice is admin-ed down it loses the slaves
    attributes (set via ifenslave). This is not consistent with other
    behavior of netdevices (example a qdisc attached to a netdevice doesnt
    disappear or an attached IP address etc).
    The included patch fixes this. Ive tested by ifenslaving, downing the
    bond, checking /proc and making sure it still has the slaves, up-ing the
    bond and making sure things continue to work.
    
    Jay/Bonding folks if you are ok with it, just ACK it or include it in
    your tree etc. Otherwise we can discuss.
