Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/6] net/core, bonding: dev_uc_sync fixes, bonding update

	This patch set includes 6 patches: four fixes to the dev_mc_sync /
dev_mc_unsync system; and two patches to bonding, one to utilize the sync
/ unsync functions, and another minor fix related to MAC address handling.

	A brief description of each patch:

	1. uninitialized variable in __hw_addr_create_ex

	2. __hw_addr_unsync_one does not work because "from" addresses
		aren't marked as "synced."

	3. __hw_addr_sync_one as called by __hw_addr_sync_multiple will
		not remove references properly

	4. dev_mc_sync_multiple doesn't call the _multiple helper function

	5. Convert bonding to use dev_{mc,uc}_sync / unsync

	6. Disallow changes of bonding MAC if fail_over_mac is set to
		"follow".

	-J
