So this can happen if bond interfaces are down at the time of joining
the bridge.  The promisc flag propagation to lower interfaces only 
happens when those interfaces are up.  So if for whatever reason,
the lower interfaces happen to be down during the crating of this
hierarchy, the promiscuity flag may not get set on the lower level port
device an we may end up in this situation.
