	Why limit this to just TLB mode?  Other similar situations,
e.g., the TX slave selection in 802.3ad or balance-xor via
bond_xmit_slave_id, would presumably see a performance gain from using
an array lookup instead of traversing a linked list (even though those
modes do already skip slaves that are down).

	The 802.3ad case is a bit more complex, as an array would have
to include only slaves that are members of the active aggregator, but
the bond_xmit_slave_id case shouldn't be much more difficult than what
you've done below.
