        Based on past discussions, I believe the intent of the code is
to permit FCOE over bonding only for active-backup mode, and possibly
for -xor/-rr as well.

        I'm not sure if the slave or the master is what's being tested
here, so I'm not sure what the right thing to do is.  I suspect it's the
master, as I recall discussion of one configuration involving
active-backup mode balancing FCOE traffic over both the active and
inactive slaves.  FCOE uses the "orig_dev" logic in __netif_receive_skb
to have the packets delivered even on the nominally inactive slave.
