Subject: [PATCH] bonding: fix miimon and arp_interval delayed work race conditions

First I would give three observations which will be used later.
Observation 1: if (delayed_work_pending(wq)) cancel_delayed_work(wq)
 This usage is wrong because the pending bit is cleared just before the work's fn is
 executed and if the function re-arms itself we might end up with the work still
 running. It is safe to call cancel_delayed_work_sync() even if the work is not queued
 at all.
Observation 2: Use of INIT_DELAYED_WORK()
 Work needs to be initialized only once prior to (de/en)queueing.
Observation 3: IFF_UP is set only after ndo_open is called

Related race conditions:
1. Race between bonding_store_miimon() and bonding_store_arp_interval()
 Because of Obs.1 we can end up having both works enqueued.
2. Multiple races with INIT_DELAYED_WORK()
 Since the works are not protected by anything between INIT_DELAYED_WORK() and
 calls to (en/de)queue it is possible for races between the following functions:
 (races are also possible between the calls to INIT_DELAYED_WORK() and workqueue code)
 bonding_store_miimon() - bonding_store_arp_interval(), bond_close(), bond_open(),
			  enqueued functions
 bonding_store_arp_interval() - bonding_store_miimon(), bond_close(), bond_open(),
				enqueued functions
3. By Obs.1 we need to change bond_cancel_all()

Bugs 1 and 2 are fixed by moving all work initializations in bond_open which by
Obs. 2 and Obs. 3 and the fact that we make sure that all works are cancelled in
bond_close(), is guaranteed not to have any work enqueued. Also RTNL lock is now
acquired in bonding_store_miimon/arp_interval so they can't race with bond_close
and bond_open. The opposing work is cancelled only if the IFF_UP flag is set
and it is cancelled unconditionally. The opposing work is already cancelled if
the interface is down so no need to cancel it again. This way we don't need new
synchronizations for the bonding workqueue. These bug (and fixes) are tied 
together and belong in the same patch.
Note: I have left 1 line intentionally over 80 characters (84) because I didn't
      like how it looks broken down. If you'd prefer it otherwise, then simply
      break it.
