Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/4] bonding: rcu cleanups

RCU was added to bonding in linux-3.12 but lacked proper sparse annotations.

Using __rcu annotation actually helps to spot all accesses to
bond->curr_active_slave & cond->current_arp_slave
are correctly protected, with full sparse & LOCKDEP support.

Lets clean the code.

Eric Dumazet (4):
  bonding: get rid of bond_option_active_slave_get()
  bonding: use rcu_access_pointer() in bonding_show_mii_status()
  bonding: add proper __rcu annotation for curr_active_slave
  bonding: add proper __rcu annotation for current_arp_slave
