Yes, pretty good. I will add more info of “no-stacking” arch and your summary.

Yes

Ok, update it in next patch version.

The patch should check the .broadcast_neighbor and bond mode firstly, and ipv4 packets quickly, and then ipv6. Parsing network packets is unavoidable, especially for IPv6 packets.

static inline bool bond_should_broadcast_neighbor(struct bonding *bond,
                                                  struct sk_buff *skb)
{
        if (!bond->params.broadcast_neighbor ||
            BOND_MODE(bond) != BOND_MODE_8023AD)
                return false;

        if (skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_ARP))
                return true;

        if (skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IPV6) &&
            pskb_may_pull(skb,
                          sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) + sizeof(struct icmp6hdr))) {
                if (ipv6_hdr(skb)->nexthdr == IPPROTO_ICMPV6) {
                        struct icmp6hdr *icmph = icmp6_hdr(skb);

                        if ((icmph->icmp6_type == NDISC_NEIGHBOUR_SOLICITATION) ||
                            (icmph->icmp6_type == NDISC_NEIGHBOUR_ADVERTISEMENT))
                                return true;
                }
        }

        return false;
}
