Yes, I missed that too.

This may cause "%s: Warning: Found an uninitialized port\n" to be
printed in bond_3ad_state_machine_handler(). But it doesn't matter.

In addition, I have analyzed the code in bond_3ad_unbind_slave().
Even if the slaver is not deleted from the list, the process is
not affected. This seems to work. Anyway, I will test it.

Sure,I will test both these two solution and report then.

Thanks Nikolay and Jay for the comments.
