Subject: [PATCH net-next] bonding: RCUify bond_set_rx_mode()

Currently we rely on rtnl locking in bond_set_rx_mode(), however it's not
always the case:

RTNL: assertion failed at drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c (3391)
...
 [<ffffffff81651ca5>] dump_stack+0x54/0x74

 [<ffffffff8161f9e7>] ipv6_sock_mc_join+0x157/0x260
...

Fix this by using RCU primitives.
