Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/3] bonding: only affect active-backup mode when
 fail_over_mac is not none

According bonding.txt, the fail_over_mac only affect active-backup mode,
but now the fail_over_mac could be set to active or follow in every mode,
this will make the new slave could not be set to bond's MAC address at
enslavement for several modes, such as RR or XOR.

So this patch fix two problems:
1). If the fail_over_mac is active or follow and the mode is not active-backup,
    the new slave could be set to the bond's MAC address,

2). The first slave could work normally regardless it could support setting MAC
    address or not, and the bonding always be set to first slave's MAC address,
    so no need to set the first slave to bond's MAC address again when fail_over_mac
    is none at enslavement.
