Subject: [PATCH RESEND net-next v2 1/3] bonding: update the primary slave
 when changing slave's name

If the slave's name changed, and the bond params primary is exist,
the bond should deal with the situation in two ways:

1) If the slave was the primary slave yet, clean the primary slave
   and reselect active slave.
2) If the slave's new name is as same as bond primary, set the slave
   as primary slave and reselect active slave.

Thanks for Veaceslav's suggestion.
