1 - It won't compile with CONFIG_ATM_BR2684_IPFILTER=y (see error message
below). Suggested fix:
ed net/atm/br2684.c <<EOF
17a
#include <linux/ip.h>
.
wq
EOF

-> Error message:

2 - As the patch does many things, splitting it in parts would be nice imho.

3 - I have on my TODO a 'please ifconfig down before killing br2684ctl' BUG
that Marcell Gal told me a few months ago (*spleen*). Did someone take care
of it ?
