[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/bonding: fix link status check

[Tomasz Kulasek <tomaszx.kulasek@intel.com>]

Some devices needs more time to initialize and bring interface up. When
link is down the link properties are not valid, e.g. link_speed is
reported as 0 and this is not a valid speed for slave as well as for whole
bonding.

During NIC (and bonding) initialization there's concurrency between
updating link status and adding slave to the bonding.

This patch:

 - adds delay before configuring bonding (if link is down) to be sure that
   link status of new slave is valid,
 - propagates information about link status from first slave with link up
   instead of first slave at all, to be sure that link speed is valid.

Fixes: 6abd94d72ab5 ("net/bonding: fix check slaves link properties")
