In the 2.2.16 kernel, it seems that the ppp_device structure was changed to
use a pointer to the net device instead of haveing the structure contained
within, and the if_down procedure was changed accordingly to use the sppp_of
macro. But, if I take a look at the 2.4.x kernel sources, it seems only the
first change, the pointer vs. struct change was made, but the if_down
procedure was not changed. I believe this is a bug and the if_down procedure
in the 2.4.x kernel must be changed to match 2.2.16+. Could anyone confirm
this?

Please CC me personally with any replies.
