Bugs in centos/nic drivers, mostly, we're migrating away from it and I
want to try to make same config first before playing around with
different ways to do it. We have config you've descriped on several
c5/6 machines but for some reason it didn't wanted to work in c6 when
there was both tagged and untagged vlan on wire. After spending some
time trying to figure out why same config in c5 doesn't want to work in
c6 I did it that way.
We also have few odd servers that need different bond config for
different vlans (mostly by having different "active" cards in each to
not force all traffic via one switch)
