bonding: Fix memory leak when changing bond type to Ethernet
[ Upstream commit c484fcc058bada604d7e4e5228d4affb646ddbc2 ]
When a net device is put administratively up, its 'IFF_UP' flag is set
(if not set already) and a 'NETDEV_UP' notification is emitted, which
causes the 8021q driver to add VLAN ID 0 on the device. The reverse
happens when a net device is put administratively down.
When changing the type of a bond to Ethernet, its 'IFF_UP' flag is
incorrectly cleared, resulting in the kernel skipping the above process
and VLAN ID 0 being leaked [1].
Fix by restoring the flag when changing the type to Ethernet, in a
similar fashion to the restoration of the 'IFF_SLAVE' flag.
The issue can be reproduced using the script in [2], with example out
before and after the fix in [3].
