[patch net-next-2.6] bonding: allow all slave speeds

[patch net-next-2.6] bonding: allow all slave speeds

[Jiri Pirko]

No need to check for 10, 100, 1000, 10000 explicitly. Just make this
generic and check for invalid values only (similar check is in ethtool
userspace app). This enables correct speed handling for slave devices
with "nonstandard" speeds.

This makes sense to me. In particular, with Wifi slaves, this should allow the actual speed of the 
wireless link to be taken into account for active slave selection. We may need to add more stuffs 
for this to work, because Wifi link speed may change after enslavement, but this is a first step in 
the right direction.

Also, the same is true for FULL/HALF duplex. Why should we check the returned value, instead of just 
storing it?

Applied, thanks.
