[PATCH] bonding: rlb mode of bond should not alter ARP originating via bridge

From: Zheng Li
Date: Thu Nov 15 2012 - 04:44:15 EST


ARP traffic passing through a bridge and out via the bond (when the bond is a
port of the bridge) should not have its source MAC address adjusted by the
receive load balance code in rlb_arp_xmit.
