	I posted it again with the usual stuff a day or two after I
posted the test patch; I'll append it to the end of this email.  Note
that the below patch has a minor cosmetic change from the test patch.

	I believe this fix should go to -stable for 2.6.26 and 2.6.27,
but it'll need the change Jesper added to pick up a macro that was added
to mainline:

	The above fragment isn't needed for mainline, only for -stable.

Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] bonding: Fix updating of speed/duplex changes
Date: 	Fri, 06 Mar 2009 15:27:33 -0800


	This patch corrects an omission from the following commit:

commit f0c76d61779b153dbfb955db3f144c62d02173c2
Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@...ibm.com>
Date:   Wed Jul 2 18:21:58 2008 -0700

    bonding: refactor mii monitor

	The un-refactored code checked the link speed and duplex of
every slave on every pass; the refactored code did not do so.

	The 802.3ad and balance-alb/tlb modes utilize the speed and
duplex information, and require it to be kept up to date.  This patch
adds a notifier check to perform the appropriate updating when the slave
device speed changes.
