Depends on your definition of bogus, and the situation, but okay.

Well, we could add another ndo_* function to the net device, I guess,
but I'd be afraid we'd hit some cases where that wasn't sufficient.
Maybe it would be best to generalize that bit after I've added macvlan
(,etc) support so we have a good idea of what else would be needed?
