From e6d184e33109010412ad1d59719af74755a935f4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Neil Horman Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2005 14:56:32 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [NET]: Fix ifenslave to not fail on lack of IP information Patch to ifenslave so that under older ABI versions, a failure to propogate ip information from master to slave does not result in a filure to enslave the slave device.
