While working with the latest bonding code I noticed a nasty problem that will prevent arp monitoring from always functioning correctly on x86_64 systems. Comparing ints to longs and expecting reliable results on x86_64 is a bad idea. With this patch, arp monitoring works correctly again.
This also needs to make its way into the 2.6.19 stable series.
