No, to both questions. Also, if I back out the 7 bonding
patches, the same insmod / rmmod does not panic.
I just set it up and did it again. Fresh boot of the system
(which doesn't load bonding); "insmod drivers/net/bonding/bonding.ko;
rmmod bonding" and blammo.
A little bisect action reveals that the problem first appears
after applying the fifth patch (below). Does a basic insmod / rmmod
cycle work ok for you? I'm specifying no options to bonding.

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] bond: Implement a basic set of rtnl link ops
[...]
This implements a basic set of rtnl link ops and takes advantage of
the fact that rtnl_link_unregister kills all of the surviving
devices to all us to kill bond_free_all. A module alias
is added so ip link add can pull in the bonding module.
