Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/2] bonding: unwind on bond_add_vlan failure

From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <Nikolay Aleksandrov nikolay@...hat.com>

In case of bond_add_vlan() failure currently we'll have the vlan's
refcnt bumped up in all slaves, but it will never go down because it
failed to get added to the bond, so properly unwind the added vlan if
bond_add_vlan fails.
