Subject: [PATCH v2 0/1] net-next: Improve perf of bond/vlans modification

In the previous version Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@...dia.com> asked
why not remove the list entirely in favour of the tree.

Altough this sounds like the right solution,
I am not sure it's possible to do this with RCU-safety in mind, and I
doubt my ability to correctly patch every place in the kernel that uses
the list without introducing further bugs.

v1 -> v2:
	- Formatting/typo fixes
	- Retarget net-next
