Subject: [PATCH 3.12 04/83] bonding: RCUify bond_set_rx_mode()

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@...hat.com>

[ Upstream commit b32418705107265dfca5edfe2b547643e53a732e ]

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)

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

Fix this by using RCU primitives.
