[ Upstream commit 92480b3977fd3884649d404cbbaf839b70035699 ] When a bond is enslaved to another bond, bond_netdev_event() only handles the event as if the bond is a master, and skips treating the bond as a slave. This leads to a refcount leak on the slave, since we don't remove the adjacency to its master and the master holds a reference on the slave. Reproducer: ip link add bondL type bond ip link add bondU type bond ip link set bondL master bondU ip link del bondL No "Fixes:" tag, this code is older than git history.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
