[PATCH] bonding: fix length of actor system

From: Tobias Jungel <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-27 22:12:51

The attribute IFLA_BOND_AD_ACTOR_SYSTEM is sent to user space having the
length of sizeof(bond->params.ad_actor_system) which is 8 byte. This
patch aligns the length to ETH_ALEN to have the same MAC address exposed
as using sysfs.

	The patch looks fine to me, but the "fixes" line is not
formatted properly.  Please format it according to

Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

	and resubmit your patch as V2.
