	In general I think this is an improvement over traversing linked
lists; however, I have a couple of comments.

	First, for the 802.3ad mode, is the case within
bond_3ad_state_machine_handler that runs the ad_agg_selection_logic (if
the agg_select_timer runs out) handled?  This may change the active
aggregator, and thus the list of slaves that ought to be in the array,
and looking at the patch I don't see where this would be taken care of.

	As a practical matter, the usage of the agg_select_timer is such
that it's unlikely to cause a change of active aggregator (it will
usually set an active aggregator when there is none, e.g., during open
processing), but this case should probably either be handled or
commented to explain why it is safe.

	It may be that the bond_3ad_initialize call to set the
agg_select_timer to 8 seconds is no longer needed, but for now it's
there and may change the active aggregator.

	One more comment below.

	If this allocation fails, won't the in-place array be left with
a reference to a slave that has potentially been freed, if, e.g., the
call came in via the __bond_release_one path?

	I haven't tested it, but it seems plausible that we could
resolve this by writing over the "disappearing" slave's entry in the
array, e.g., move the last element of the array to the "disappearing"
element.

	If this is a problem, the same logic exists in the current
(tlb-only) code, so a fix for stable may be needed as well.
