fixed in bonding_store_lacp_port_id():
(        struct slave *first_slave = bond_first_slave(bond);
        if (first_slave) {
                pr_err("%s: Can't set port id because device have slave(s).\n",
                       bond->dev->name);
                return -EPERM;
        }
)

global default value is used to initialize bonding_defaults.lacp_port_id now.
(params->lacp_port_id = lacp_port_id;)

first slave is initialized by per-bond port id in bond_enslave().
(SLAVE_AD_INFO(new_slave).id = bond->params.lacp_port_id;)

>>>

slave port id is shown in bond_info_show_slave():
(seq_printf(seq, "Slave port id: %d\n", SLAVE_AD_INFO(slave).id);)

port id overflow check in bond_enslave():
(                        prev_slave = bond_prev_slave(bond, new_slave);
                        if (SLAVE_AD_INFO(prev_slave).id == 65535) {
                                pr_err("%s: Error: Couldn't add new slave (%s) because maximum port id (65535) is reached.\n",
                                       bond_dev->name, slave_dev->name);
                                res = -EPERM;
                                goto err_detach;
                        }
)
i'm not sure "goto err_detach" is the proper jump but it seems to be good.

i hope next week i can test this solution with devices other than cisco.
(older juniper and low-end hp 3com)

btw i welcome any test with any network devices related to this feature.
