[PATCH net-next] bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

Some workloads greatly benefit of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability
on output net device, avoiding dirtying dst refcount.

bonding currently disables IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE unconditionally.

If all slaves have the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit set, then
bonding master can also have it in its priv_flags

Applied.
