ok. That was the path i had taken initially (see for getlink/setlink):
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg313436.html

I have resubmitted the patch with rollback to transparently following 
lowerdevs.
My version also does not follow lowerdevs if NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD 
is not
set. And this is set on bonds and teams if any one of their lowerdevs 
have it currently.

thanks.
