Subject: [PATCH net-next-2.6] bonding: set primary param via sysfs

Primary module parameter passed to bonding is pernament. That means if you
release the primary slave and enslave it again, it becomes the primary slave
again. But if you set primary slave via sysfs, the primary slave is only set
once and it's not remembered in bond->params structure. Therefore the setting is
lost after releasing the primary slave. This simple one-liner fixes this.
