    bonding: introduce primary_reselect option · a549952a
    Jiri Pirko authored
    In some cases there is not desirable to switch back to primary interface when
    it's link recovers and rather stay with currently active one. We need to avoid
    packetloss as much as we can in some cases. This is solved by introducing
    primary_reselect option. Note that enslaved primary slave is set as current
    active no matter what.
    
    Patch modified by Jay Vosburgh as follows: fixed bug in action
    after change of option setting via sysfs, revised the documentation
    update, and bumped the bonding version number.
