David, if you mean not touch bond and team but have the switchdev
api do it transparently, yes, i had it that way initially.  And i do
liked it that way as well. But the feedback i received (during the
initial introduction of this for setlink/dellink) was to make it
explicit for each master.

I think the concern is that we only want to do this for devices
for which it is safe to "traverse" down like this.

But frankly I cannot think of any layered device where we would
not want to do this.

Let's go back to the simple scheme where we unconditionally traverse
and if we hit a problem case we'll figure out how to deal with it
then, ok?
