Subject: [ 106/124] bonding: remove already created master sysfs link on failure
3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@...hat.com>
[ Upstream commit 9fe16b78ee17579cb4f333534cf7043e94c67024 ]
If slave sysfs symlink failes to be created - we end up without removing
the master sysfs symlink. Remove it in case of failure.
