When adding a point to point downlink to the bond, we neglected to reset the bond's flags, which were still using flags like BROADCAST and MULTICAST. Consequently, this would initiate ARP/DAD for P2P downlink interfaces, such as when adding a GRE device to the bonding. To address this issue, let's reset the bond's flags for P2P interfaces.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
