BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697892

== SRU Justification ==
Kernel versions >= 4.2: bonding 802.3ad does not work with 5G, 25G and 50G link
speeds.  This bug is resolved by mainline commits 19ddde1 and c7c55067.  These 
commits were included in mainline in the following versions:

19ddde1e: v4.12-rc1
c7c55067: v4.12-rc6

These commits are needed in Yakkety, Zesty and Artful.  They are also
needed in Xenial, but Xenial also requires two prereq commits.  Because
of this, Xenial will be submitted as a separate SRU request.

== Fixes ==

    bonding: add 802.3ad support for 25G speeds

commit c7c550670afda2e16f9e2d06a1473885312eb6b5

    bonding: fix 802.3ad support for 5G and 50G speeds

== Regression Potential ==
These commits are just adding new enum definitions, so risk of regression
is low.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug
reporter.  The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
