Barf!

I'll fix it like this:

commit 6952d8923bcc8d6b8b43b065cfe9a31bb24f0d58
Author: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>
Date:   Fri Mar 28 16:15:38 2008 -0700

    [BOND]: Fix warning in bond_sysfs.c
    
    original_mtu is only used if we end up with a non-NULL
    dev, and it is assigned in all such cases, but GCC can't
    see that.
