Finally, I'm still a little stumped about why this change is necessary
still, to be honest.

If I understand it correctly this patch fixes the "[PATCH] bonding: 
suppress duplicate packets" patch:

http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=8f903c708fcc2b579ebf16542bf6109bad593a1d;hp=ebe19a4ed78d4a11a7e01cdeda25f91b7f2fcb5a

It seems that the original patch does not work properly in vlan 
accelerated environment, which I reported 31 Mar 2006
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bonding-devel&m=114381240718113&w=2

Anyway, I didn't test this patch yet but I'm going to di it ASAP.

Best regards,
