Actually the LIBABIVER bump seems appropriate since a public struct 
(rte_eth_bond_8023ad_conf) changes size.

As for the rest, I'm not quite sure what the patch is trying to achieve. 
I initially assumed its trying to add a new incompatible version of 
rte_bond_mode_8023ad_setup() and rte_eth_bond_8023ad_conf_get() which 
could be a perfectly reasonable thing to do in some circumstances. As it 
is, the patch actually adds versioning to an internal symbol which just 
doesn't make sense at all. Symbol versioning is only meaningful for 
public symbols.
