Yes I do. I will refolmulate the phrase and repost the patch if you want...

Yes this fail_over_mac is en exception. In fact I was playing with fail_over_mac
bonding interface in bridge and I have no luck to force a problem with two NICs.
However with 3 NICs I've managed it to the state of 100% packet loss. I'm going
to look at this issue later. This patch is not addressing it...
