Subject: [PATCH 22/38] sysfs: Add support for tagged directories with untagged members.

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...well.aristanetworks.com>

I had hopped to avoid this but the bonding driver adds a file
to /sys/class/net/  and the easiest way to handle that file is
to make it untagged and to register it only once.

So relax the rules on tagged directories, and make bonding work.
