This patch adds basic Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregator (VEPA)
capabilities to the Linux kernel Ethernet bridging code.
A Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregator (VEPA) is a capability within
a physical end station that collaborates with an adjacent, external
bridge to provide distributed bridging
Under newer kernels the bridge configuration parameters
are located under /sys/class/net/$bridgename/bridge/$param,
while the current bridge-utils code is trying to access
them under /sys/class/net/$bridgename/$param. This patch
fixes this issue in the bridge-utils code and so allows
setting of
