Commit 4d2c0cda07448ea6980f00102dc3964eb25e241c set slave->link to
BOND_LINK_DOWN for 802.3ad bonds whenever invalid speed/duplex values
were read, to fix a problem with slaves getting into weird states, but
in the process, broke tracking of link failures, as going straight to
BOND_LINK_DOWN when a link is indeed down (cable pulled, switch rebooted)
means we broke out of bond_miimon_inspect()'s BOND_LINK_DOWN case because
!link_state was already true, we never incremented commit, and never got
a chance to call bond_miimon_commit(), where slave->link_failure_count
would be incremented. I believe the simple fix here is to mark the slave
as BOND_LINK_FAIL, and let bond_miimon_inspect() transition the link from
_FAIL to either _UP or _DOWN, and in the latter case, we now get proper
incrementing of link_failure_count again.
Fixes: 4d2c0cda0744 ("bonding: speed/duplex update at NETDEV_UP event")

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.
