From 0ac820eebe9008094040955d294ef7b33b418413 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com> Date: Tue, 17 Aug 2010 18:45:08 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] vlan: Match underlying dev carrier on vlan add When adding a new vlan, if the underlying interface has no carrier, then the newly added vlan interface should also have no carrier. At present, this is not true - the newly added vlan is added with carrier up. Fix by checking state of real device. Signed-off-by: Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
