Subject: [PATCHv2 net-next] bonding: 3ad: send ifinfo notify when mux state changed

Currently, administrators need to retrieve LACP mux state changes from
the kernel DEBUG log using netdev_dbg and slave_dbg macros. To simplify
this process, let's send the ifinfo notification whenever the mux state
changes. This will enable users to directly access and monitor this
information using the ip monitor command.
