Hi, David,
In function "bond_ethdev_promiscuous_disable",
for "ROUND ROBIN","BALANCE","BROADCAST","8023AD" mode, Promiscuous mode
is propagated to all slaves.

While for "ACTIVE_BACKUP", "TLB", "ALB", promiscuous mode is propagated 
only to primary slave.

Why?

The second question, for "ACTIVE_BACKUP", when primary active slave
fails, a different slave becomes active, does the promiscuous mode state
of former primary should be set to the new primary?

      Hope for your reply.
      Best Wishes.
