[PATCH] net/bonding: failover of LACP with mode 4 takes long time

[Gaoxiang Liu <gaoxiangliu0@163.com>]

When the primary port of bond slaves with bond mode 4 linked down,
the system id of the other slave ports channged.
It may cause some switches to renegotiate,
and the process takes a few seconds. It is not acceptable for any
Telcos.
We need sub-second switchover time like in linux.

Set the mac of the bond port to the slave port's system to solve the
problem.
