Comments in pci_common_uio.c:54 and vmbus_common_uio.c:88 refers to 
secondary process as "slave", should probably fix that too.

You mentioned "bonding" driver as needing work but there's actually a 
whole bunch of instances of such terminology being used internally in 
other drivers as well (e.g. cryptodev scheduler). A quick grep on 
"master|slave" gives us a huge list of files, and while some of them are 
spec terms (e.g. PCI bus mastering), a lot of them aren't. I'm of course 
not suggesting it all should be done in this patch, just noting that 
bonding isn't the only driver needing work :)

As for contents of this patch (provided the corrections mentioned above 
are done),
