ethtool is being abused by the bonding driver. ifenslave is passing in which ABI version it wants to use via the ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO call. This cannot continue in the ethtool_ops scheme, and it's my opinion this shouldn't've been done in the first place. I suggest a new ioctl to set your ABI version and delete this bad use of ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO. -- "It's not Hollywood. War is real, war is primarily not about defeat or victory, it is about death.
