Because it's the closest it can get to "have we sent an ARP,"
really. The issue with LLTX is relatively new (the bonding driver has
worked this way for longer than I've been involved, so I don't know what
the original design decisions were).
FWIW, I've been working with the following, which is closer in
spirit to what Jakub and I discussed previously (i.e., inspecting the
device stats for virtual devices, relying on dev_trans_start for
physical devices with ndo_tx_timeout).
This WIP includes one unrelated change: including the ifindex in
the route lookup; that would be a separate patch if it ends up being
submitted (it handles the edge case of a route on an interface other
than the bond matching before the bond itself).
