Jay, Andy,

While working at this patch, I noticed that the bonding driver version wasn't bumped up at the time 
those options were introduced.

I thought introducing a new option should cause the driver version to change. Am I right?

On a different but related topic, the version in Documentation/networking/ifenslave.c (1.1.0) didn't 
change since the git origin and probably since 2003.

Arguably, none of the commit regarding this file introduced a significant change (with the possible 
exception of commit e6d184e33109010412ad1d59719af74755a935f4, [NET]: Fix ifenslave to not fail on 
lack of IP information). But if we never change a 3-level version number, whatever the level of 
change, this version number might be useless. Any comment?

	Nicolas.
