Local variable netdev is not used in these calls. It should be noted, that this change is required to work in bonded mode. In the other case we would get the following assert: "RTNL: assertion failed at net/core/dev.c (5665)" with the calltrace as follows: dump_stack+0x19/0x1b netdev_master_upper_dev_get+0x61/0x70 i40iw_addr_resolve_neigh+0x1e8/0x220 i40iw_make_cm_node+0x296/0x700 ? i40iw_find_listener.isra.10+0xcc/0x110 i40iw_receive_ilq+0x3d4/0x810 i40iw_puda_poll_completion+0x341/0x420 i40iw_process_ceq+0xa5/0x280 i40iw_ceq_dpc+0x1e/0x40 tasklet_action+0x83/0x140 __do_softirq+0x125/0x2bb call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 do_softirq+0x65/0xa0 irq_exit+0x105/0x110 do_IRQ+0x56/0xf0 common_interrupt+0x16a/0x16a ? cpuidle_enter_state+0x57/0xd0 cpuidle_idle_call+0xde/0x230 arch_cpu_idle+0xe/0xc0 cpu_startup_entry+0x14a/0x1e0 start_secondary+0x1f7/0x270 start_cpu+0x5/0x14 Signed-off-by: Denis V.
