The slaves being listed as active is not a bug.  If the slaves are not
deactivated, then they should be considered activated.  Previously,
stopping the bonding PMD just reset the active slave count.  That's
not the right way to deactivate slaves.  This was fixed by 69bce062132b.

This patch is new behavior of explicitly deactivating the slaves when
the bonding PMD is stopped.

As I mentioned, I think this makes life difficult for those of us using
an external state machine.  However, that should probably be fixed
differently then.
