[PATCH 5.10 120/154] tun: fix bonding active backup with arp monitoring

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Date: 2021-11-24 13:38:29
Also in: lkml

From: Nicolas Dichtel <redacted>

commit a31d27fbed5d518734cb60956303eb15089a7634 upstream.

As stated in the bonding doc, trans_start must be set manually for drivers
using NETIF_F_LLTX:
 Drivers that use NETIF_F_LLTX flag must also update
 netdev_queue->trans_start. If they do not, then the ARP monitor will
 immediately fail any slaves using that driver, and those slaves will stay
 down.
