I've been asked if it would be okay to add extra lines to the
/proc/net/bonding/<bond interface> output, so that for example, both
"Slave Interface: <interface>" and "Link Interface: <interface>" are
both in the default output, with the Slave bits then suppressed by the
Kconfig option being unset, versus the Kconfig option currently
swapping out Slave for Link when disabled. It would bloat the output
by a fair number of lines, but all the same data would be there and
parseable. Wasn't sure on this one, so I wanted to check on it. If it
would be acceptable, I'll rework that bit of code.
