Hi all.

The problem is described in following bugzilla:

This patch solves the situation in the bonding without touching bridge code,
as Patrick suggested. For every incoming frame to bonding it searches the
destination address in slaves list and if any of slave addresses matches, it
rewrites the address in frame by the adress of bonding master. This ensures that
all frames comming thru the bonding in alb mode have the same address.

I don't like the hook, but if that's how it's best done....

Yes I agree with you, but I thing that for now it's the best way to do this. I
picked this solution out of 3 that I had in mind and this is the lesser evil :)
If anyone have any other solution please speak up.

Patrick, please review this.
