static inline bool should_copy_dev_addrs(const struct bonding *bond)
{
	return (bond->params.mode == BOND_MODE_ALB);
}

Three things are wrong with your style here:
   1. Needless use of tri-graph operator, just return the result
   2. Use const for test_foo() type functions
   3. Use bool to make it clearer what the result is.

The notifier (dev_mac_address_changed) should be part of dev_addr_add
