I'm not sure..but I think this does not work because the "set master" command
does not use ioctl, but rtnl only. Since in this kernel we don't have rtnl for
these operations (this is why we have this hacky patch) I did not expect this
command to work.

what would you like to fix? :) We have just implemented a feature and now we
don't have any userspace tool which can exploit it! :-D
Simon, Thanks a lot for testing!
