It occurs because of my recent netpoll blocking patches, which I added to avoid
recursive deadlock in the bonding driver. It relies on some per cpu bits, but
the shutdown path forces some rescheduling as we cancel workqueues for the
driver and wait for some device refcounts. If after the forced reschedule, we
wind up on a different cpu we trigger the bughalt in unblock_netpoll_tx.
The fix is to remove the netpoll block/unblock calls from bond_release_all.
This is safe to do because bond_uninit, which is called via ndo_uninit in
rollback_registered_many, doesn't occur until we send a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event,
which triggers netconsole to remove us as a netpoll client, so we are guaranteed
not to recurse into our own tx path here.

The monitoring paths in the bonding driver take write locks that are shared by
the tx path. If netconsole is in use, these paths can call printk which puts us
in the netpoll tx path, which, if netconsole is attached to the bonding driver,
result in deadlock (the xmit_lock guards are useless in netpoll_send_skb, as the
monitor paths in the bonding driver don't claim the xmit_lock, nor should they).
The solution is to use a per cpu flag internal to the driver to indicate when a
cpu is holding the lock in a path that might recusrse into the tx path for the
driver via netconsole. By checking this flag on transmit, we can defer the
sending of the netconsole frames until a later time using the retransmit feature
of netpoll_send_skb that is triggered on the return code NETDEV_TX_BUSY. I've
tested this and am able to transmit via netconsole while causing failover
conditions on the bond slave links.

The bonding driver currently modifies the netpoll structure in its xmit path
while sending frames from netpoll. This is racy, as other cpus can access the
netpoll structure in parallel. Since the bonding driver points np->dev to a
slave device, other cpus can inadvertently attempt to send data directly to
slave devices, leading to improper locking with the bonding master, lost frames,
and deadlocks. This patch fixes that up.
This patch also removes the real_dev pointer from the netpoll structure as that
data is really only used by bonding in the poll_controller, and we can emulate
its behavior by check each slave for IS_UP.

After commit ad1afb0039
("vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)")
it is now regular practice for a VLAN "add vid" for VLAN 0 to
arrive prior to any VLAN registration or creation of a vlan_group.
This patch updates the bonding code that tests for the presence
of VLANs configured above bonding. The new logic tests for bond->vlgrp
to determine if a registration has occured, instead of testing that
bonding's internal vlan_list is empty.
The old code would panic when vlan_list was not empty, but
vlgrp was still NULL (because only an "add vid" for VLAN 0 had occured).
Bonding still adds VLAN 0 to its internal list so that 802.1p
frames are handled correctly on transmit when non-VLAN accelerated
slaves are members of the bond. The test against bond->vlan_list
remains in bond_dev_queue_xmit for this reason.
Modification to the bond->vlgrp now occurs under lock (in
addition to RTNL), because not all inspections of it occur under RTNL.
Additionally, because 8021q will never issue a "kill vid" for
VLAN 0, there is now logic in bond_uninit to release any remaining
entries from vlan_list.

v2: changed bonding module version, modified to apply on top of changes
from previous patch in series, and updated documentation to elaborate on
multiqueue awareness that now exists in bonding driver.
This patch give the user the ability to control the output slave for
round-robin and active-backup bonding. Similar functionality was
discussed in the past, but Jay Vosburgh indicated he would rather see a
feature like this added to existing modes rather than creating a
completely new mode. Jay's thoughts as well as Neil's input surrounding
some of the issues with the first implementation pushed us toward a
design that relied on the queue_mapping rather than skb marks.
Round-robin and active-backup modes were chosen as the first users of
this slave selection as they seemed like the most logical choices when
considering a multi-switch environment.
Round-robin mode works without any modification, but active-backup does
require inclusion of the first patch in this series and setting
the 'all_slaves_active' flag. This will allow reception of unicast traffic on
any of the backup interfaces.
This was tested with IPv4-based filters as well as VLAN-based filters
with good results.

v2: changed parameter name from 'keep_all' to 'all_slaves_active' and
skipped setting slaves to inactive rather than creating a new flag at
Jay's suggestion.
In an effort to suppress duplicate frames on certain bonding modes
(specifically the modes that do not require additional configuration on
the switch or switches connected to the host), code was added in the
generic receive patch in 2.6.16. The current behavior works quite well
for most users, but there are some times it would be nice to restore old
functionality and allow all frames to make their way up the stack.
This patch adds support for a new module option and sysfs file called
'all_slaves_active' that will restore pre-2.6.16 functionality if the
user desires. The default value is '0' and retains existing behavior,
but the user can set it to '1' and allow all frames up if desired.

Round-robin (mode 0) does nothing to ensure that any multicast traffic
originally destined for the host will continue to arrive at the host when
the link that sent the IGMP join or membership report goes down. One of
the benefits of absolute round-robin transmit.
Keeping track of subscribed multicast groups for each slave did not seem
like a good use of resources, so I decided to simply send on the
curr_active slave of the bond (typically the first enslaved device that
is up). This makes failover management simple as IGMP membership
reports only need to be sent when the curr_active_slave changes. I
tested this patch and it appears to work as expected.

The convention for API functions in kernel is to return errno value;
bond_open would return -1 if alb setup failed. The only reason that
could happen is if kmalloc() failed.
