Re: [PATCH 4/5] Add loopback checkpoint support

[Dan Smith <danms@us.ibm.com>]

ED> this for small machines ?

Yes, and the veth patch used it appropriately.  It should look like
this:

Add loopback checkpoint support (v2)

Adds a small ndo_checkpoint() handler for loopback devices to write the
name and addresses like other interfaces.

Changes in v2:
 - Add CONFIG_CHECKPOINT around the handler
