Jay, 

I have tested with your patch and indeed now, vlan-over-bond (e.g bond0.4001) advertises features to the stack wheres before it didn't. Below is the patch you sent with the debugging prints removed and my signature added, I would be happy if you set the change-log && your signature and push it further to Dave. I'm also find if you prefer that I'll do that.
