    [PATCH] iseries_veth: Don't send packets to LPARs which aren't up · f27eff1f

    Hi Andrew, Jeff,
    
    The iseries_veth driver has a logic bug which means it will erroneously
    send packets to LPARs for which we don't have a connection.
    
    This usually isn't a big problem because the Hypervisor call fails
    gracefully and we return, but if packets are TX'ed during the negotiation
    of the connection bad things might happen.
    
    Regardless, the right thing is to bail early if we know there's no
    connection.
