I wrote the patch.  It should be in this list's archives and the netdev 
list at the beginning of july.  The patches are in mainline now, but 
only work on br2684 VCs so it passes the LOWER_UP flag.

The patches are in mainline now see commits  
49d49106fc6cbb48c832aa58e3e6cee8b49d5e8f, 
7313bb8f3dd6e28bcf9c42adfd54a5cf9a4949e0, 
005066122b58f3b350736cc896af46aea2e32d23,  and others for each device.
