Maybe the fundamental issue is that the queue mappings only allow for
one level of multi queue device.  It might be better if bonding didn't
have one and dev_pick_tx did the right thin (use xps on bonding
maybe).

bonding misuses multiqueue infrastructure to divert frames on selected
slaves, or maybe I am wrong.

This is right see bond_slave_override() here the slaves queue_ids
are mapped to skb->queue_mapping via this TX_QUEUE_OVERRIDE param.
