Subject: [PATCH 2/3] net: fix conflict between null_or_orig and null_or_bond

From: John Fastabend <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 13 May 2010 00:31:11 -0700

If a skb is received on an inactive bond that does not meet
the special cases checked for by skb_bond_should_drop it should
only be delivered to exact matches as the comment in
netif_receive_skb() says.

However because null_or_bond could also be null this is not
always true.  This patch renames null_or_bond to orig_or_bond
and initializes it to orig_dev.  This keeps the intent of
null_or_bond to pass frames received on VLAN interfaces stacked
on bonding interfaces without invalidating the statement for
null_or_orig.
