Subject: Bonding tied to IPV6 in 29-rc5

Hi all...

Don't know if this is specific for -rc5, I have jumped from 28.4 to 29-rc5.
In this latest kernel, I can not install 'bonding' module if 'ipv6' is
disabled to load via modprobe.conf:

install ipv6 /bin/true

Trying bonding gives this dmesg:

bonding: Unknown symbol ndisc_build_skb
bonding: Unknown symbol in6_dev_finish_destroy
bonding: Unknown symbol ndisc_send_skb
bonding: Unknown symbol unregister_inet6addr_notifier
bonding: Unknown symbol register_inet6addr_notifier

Commenting the line in modprobe.conf makes things smooth again.
We can not disable ipv6 anymore ?

TIA
