I realize it won't be pretty, but this is currently the only option that
needs such workaround. I think we can later change the value storage to be
a union so it will be easier to use as needed.
It'd be nice to have some more opinions on this, but the general direction
has been (and still is afaik) to remove the per-option sysfs functions and
to reduce code duplication, for reference see commit dc3e5d18f2a2
("bonding: make a generic sysfs option store and fix comments").
So I think the extra-work is worth it.

Cheers,
 Nik
