Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 0/3] bonding: fix bond_3ad RCU usage

While digging through bond_3ad.c I've found that the RCU usage there is
just wrong - it's used as a kind of mutex/spinlock instead of RCU.

v1->v2: use generic primitives instead of _rcu ones cause we can hold RTNL
lock without RCU one, which is still safe.

This patchset is on top of bond_3ad.c cleanup:
