core code should be generic, not specific and renamed at a later date
when a second use case arises.
Yeah, I guess we just have to agree to disagree :)
So I am remaining with the flags. Any suggestion for better name for the
enum? Should I move master_xmit_get_slave from lag.h to netdevice.h?
IMHO, yes, that is a better place.

generic ndo name and implementation.
type specific flag as needed.

This is consistent with net_device and ndo - both generic concepts -
with specifics relegated to flags (e.g., IFF_*)
Why there is need for flags? Why a single bool can't do as I suggested?
Do you see any usecase for another flag?

Currently no. I am okay with single bool.
