Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] bonding: remove rlb_enabled and alb_set_mac_address()

Hi,

Currently rlb_enabled works as
rlb_enabled == (BOND_MODE(bond) == BOND_MODE_ALB)
so we can always use this verification and drop maintenance of this
variable.

alb_set_mac_address(), OTOH, isn't used at all (as the mac changing logic
is used in other parts), and isn't ever called, so it's safe to remove it
as well.
