In the previous patch I added NETDEV_ENSLAVE, now
we can notify netconsole when adding a device to a bridge too.

By the way, s/netdev_bonding_change/call_netdevice_notifiers/ in
bond_main.c, since this is not bonding specific.

Is there a usage for this? What listens for this notification?

Never mind it was in the first patch which you did not send.
You should always put a number on group of patches and send
to all parties.

Ah, sorry, my script simply run get_maintainers.pl to
get the Cc list, so bridge list was not in included in
the first patch.


Also, sending networking patches to LKML is a waste of bandwidth
please don't bother.

Ok, will fix my script.

Thanks.
