Why can't I create VLAN interfaces on bonded NICs?

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

System: DL380 G8 running RHEL6.3 - latest kernel: 2.6.32-279.9.1.el6.x86_64 and kmod-tg3-3.122-2.el6_2.x86_64.

Issue: Fails to create two VLAN interfaces on a bond0 consisting of two ports (eth0,eth1) located on the DL380 G8's embedded 4-port card.

Is this possibly related to BZ#834764 or any other related issues?
