Dave,

This patch should be ready for inclusion.

I've addressed Jay's concerns related tcpdumps on the various
interfaces, so that there is no difference between the way things behave
before and after the patch.

I also addressed Eric's concerns regarding the liability of calling
__dev_get_by_index and switched to the shiny, new dev_get_by_index_rcu.

A backported version has also seen some testing on a 2.6.18-based kernel
and the results have been positive.

Thanks for following up,

-andy
