patch1: Distinguish between modes that use a primary slave from
those that don't, and propagate settings accordingly; Consolidate change_active operations and add reselect_active and find_best opeartions.

patch2:  Change monitoring function use the above functionality.
patch3:  Modes that don't use primary don't use the above functionality.
patch4:  Decouple promiscuous handling from the multicast mode setting.
patch5:  Add support for changing HW address and MTU with proper unwind
	 in old modes.
patch6:  Same thing for ALB/TLB modes.
patch7:  Consolidate /proc code, add CHANGENAME handler.
patch8:  Enhance netdev notification handling.
	 Add comment block and bump version.
