Applied, thanks for bringing this to our attention and fixing it David.

Jiri, I disagree you on every single possible level.

If you didn't like how netdevsim worked in this area the opportunity to do
something about it was way back when it went in.

No matter how completely busted or disagreeable an interface is, once we have
committed it to a release (and in particular people are knowingly using and
depending upon it) you cannot break it.

It doesn't matter how much you disagree with something, you cannot break it
when it's out there and actively in use.

Do you have any idea how much stuff I'd like to break because I think the
design turned out to be completely wrong?  But I can't.
