	As Nik suggested, please add some additional explanation here.
You can cut and paste my description from the original discussion if

	Stylistically, the "if dev" and "if netif_is_bridge_master"
could be one line, e.g., "if dev && netif_is_bridge_master".

	Functionally, ip_dev_find acquires a reference to dev, and this
code will need to release (dev_put) that reference.

	I'm also wondering if testing bond->dev for netif_if_bridge_port
before ip_dev_find would help here (as an optimization); I think so, for
the case where the bond is directly in the bridge without a VLAN in the
middle.
