There is no mode specific stuff for XOR mode and link events do not
trigger anything for this mode. So the array stays stale and thats
bad. The situation is different if the miimon or arpmon is used. But
if someone tries to use this mode without arp/mii-mon, then these
slave device event will have to be used to update the usable
slave-array. I think 3ad handles it correctly, but now thinking about
it, I need to check how TLB mode handles it.

If you do bond down the slave array is free-ed here, but next time
when the bond up operation is performed, the slave array will be
rebuilt. In that code, the logic always dereferences the earlier array
and since it's non-NULL, this might end-up in double-free situation.
So to avoid that I'm assigning NULL after the free.

Shouldn't __bond_release_slave() be called before closing the bond()?
I'll have to check the code, but if you are right, then this is not
the correct place for this free operation and probably the better
place would be the bond_ununit() in that case.

Shouldn't the array manipulation (the overwrite operation) be

The only possibility here is from the __bond_release_one() because of
the skipslave and that path uses bond->lock.

__bond_release_one() uses write_lock_bh(). Isn't that sufficient to
prevent a potential xmitter from getting into that mode?
