From e826eafa65c6f1f7c8db5a237556cebac57ebcc5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Oester Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2011 06:22:05 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] bonding: Call netif_carrier_off after register_netdevice Bringing up a bond interface with all network cables disconnected does not properly set the interface as DOWN because the call to netif_carrier_off occurs too early in bond_init. The call needs to occur after register_netdevice has set dev->reg_state to NETREG_REGISTERED, so that netif_carrier_off will trigger the call to linkwatch_fire_event.
