[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 150/294] bonding: report duplicate MAC address in all situations

From: Hangbin Liu <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 28d68d396a1cd21591e8c6d74afbde33a7ea107e ]

Normally, a bond uses the MAC address of the first added slave as the bond’s
MAC address. And the bond will set active slave’s MAC address to bond’s
address if fail_over_mac is set to none (0) or follow (2).

When the first slave is removed, the bond will still use the removed slave’s
MAC address, which can lead to a duplicate MAC address and potentially cause
issues with the switch. To avoid confusion, let's warn the user in all
situations, including when fail_over_mac is set to 2 or not in active-backup
mode.
