Definitely want (or need?) some customer feedback if this is going to get 
in...

The relevant patch from the kernels in question...

Comment 10 John W. Linville 2005-07-08 17:51:21 UTC
I'd really like to hear some test results...? 

Comment 12 John W. Linville 2005-07-18 13:33:11 UTC
It has been pointed-out that this breaks kABI for RHEL3, so it will _not_ go 
in without some major rework... 

Comment 13 John W. Linville 2005-07-18 14:28:26 UTC
Would a global (i.e. _NOT_ per interface) setting be acceptable? 

Comment 15 Ernie Petrides 2005-09-13 03:22:26 UTC
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U7
patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-37.1.EL).
