This patch converts bonding to use rx_handler. Results in cleaner
__netif_receive_skb() with much less exceptions needed. Also
bond-specific work is moved into bond code.

v1->v2:
        using skb_iif instead of new input_dev to remember original
	device
v2->v3:
	set orig_dev = skb->dev if skb_iif is set

Seems much better ;)

Do you have some performance numbers ?

I don't. I can surely obtain some. What's the best way to measure this?

Hmm, since its receive path :

Two machines, one sending (pktgen) a flood, one receiving it and
check/count how many frames hit destination, before/after patch.
