Quoting Or Gerlitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

To be precise, bonding will copy all the symbols it copies today from the slave module (ipoib), see bond_setup_by_slave() in patch 3/7

Not really.
This copying of symbols is something that you added, isn't it?
So with this approach, it won't be needed.

It's always wrong to copy symbols from another module without
referencing it.

Its the --first-- time you make this comment, please suggest a different approach, the relevant code is below.
