From: David Owens <david.owens at rockwellcollins.com>

This patch adds an option to include the tools on target that allow
the saving and restoring of ebtables. The upstream save utility is
replaced in this commit as it depended on perl which is not always
possible on an embedded system. The commit used to replace this
script seems to note it as a common approach across a few distros.

Changes
v1 -> v2
 - Split out the save and restore so that only when saving bash is
   a dependency

+Subject: [PATCH] ebtables: replace ebtables-save perl script with bash rewrite
+
+Fedora provides a bash replacement for the default ebtables-save perl
+script. Using it allows the ebtables run-time dependency on perl to
+be replaced with a runtime dependency on bash - which is lower
+overhead and more likely to be present on typical embedded systems
+already.
