[PATCH] bonding: fix enslaving in alb mode when link down

From: Jiri Bohac <hidden>
Date: 2012-01-18 22:24:55

bond_alb_init_slave() is called from bond_enslave() and sets the slave's MAC
address. This is done differently for TLB and ALB modes.
bond->alb_info.rlb_enabled is used to discriminate between the two modes but
this flag may be uninitialized if the slave is being enslaved prior to calling
bond_open() -> bond_alb_initialize() on the master.

It turns out all the callers of alb_set_slave_mac_addr() pass
bond->alb_info.rlb_enabled as the hw parameter.

This patch cleans up the unnecessary parameter of alb_set_slave_mac_addr() and
makes the function decide based on the bonding mode instead, which fixes the
above problem.

copying Narendra, who already reported this problem in 
http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2011/12/27/14
and who has done most of the debugging so far.
