Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] bonding: extend round-robin mode

This small patchset adds a new option called packets_per_slave to the
bonding which aims to extend round-robin mode with the following effects:
0 - choose the slave id at random
1 - packet per slave (standard round-robin, default option value)
 >1 - transmit >1 packets per slave, switch the slaves in round-robin
Patch02 adds a description for the new option to the bonding documentation.

Best regards,
 Nikolay Aleksandrov
