Subject: [PATCH] bonding: update docs to correctly reflect arp_ip_target
behavior
The latest version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 doesn't need '+' in
front of each IP address listed as an arp_ip_target, and correctly
supports a comma separated list of IP addresses using the current
version of initscripts. This patch drops all references to the need for
a '+' before each IP address and the description now matches the
behavior.
