I think we can apply it, but I'm a bit surprized, because we're using
2.6.32 in our products and heavily use bonding. We've run extensive
tests in a number of situations and did not find any remaining issue.
Could you please describe the exact scenario you're using to reproduce
this issue ? Maybe it simply cannot happen in our case, which would
explain why we didn't see it.

Thanks,
Willy
