Arthur,
We were able to get the bonding driver working with your patch on 2.6.12.
The good news is it does help in our setup since we were left with 25%
CPU compared to 1% CPU remaining earlier.

Thanks,
Ravi

Hmmm, interesting. 

I've used it with 2.6.X for at least two values of X (one of them 
being 5) so I'm surprised. Can you provide details about the oops?
