bonding: fix PACKET_ORIGDEV regression
This patch fixes a subtle PACKET_ORIGDEV regression which was a side effect of fixes introduced by: 6a9e461f6fe4 bonding: pass link-local packets to bonding master also. ... to: b89f04c61efe bonding: deliver link-local packets with skb->dev set to link that packets arrived on While 6a9e461f6fe4 restored pre-b89f04c61efe presence of link-local packets on bonding masters (which is required e.g. by linux bridges participating in spanning tree or needed for lab-like setups created with group_fwd_mask) it also caused the originating device information to be lost due to cloning. Maciej Żenczykowski proposed another solution that doesn't require packet cloning and retains original device information - instead of returning RX_HANDLER_PASS for all link-local packets it's now limited only to packets from inactive slaves. At the same time, packets passed to bonding masters retain correct information about the originating device and PACKET_ORIGDEV can be used to determine it. This elegantly solves all issues so far: - link-local packets that were removed from bonding masters - LLDP daemons being forced to explicitly bind to slave interfaces - PACKET_ORIGDEV having no effect on bond interfaces Fixes: 6a9e461f6fe4 (bonding: pass link-local packets to bonding master also.)

- /* Link-local multicast packets should be passed to the

- * stack receives it with the link on which they arrive
- * (e.g. LLDP) they also must be available on master. Some of
- * the use cases include (but are not limited to): LLDP agents
- * that must be able to operate both on enslaved interfaces as
- * well as on bonds themselves; linux bridges that must be able
- * to process/pass BPDUs from attached bonds when any kind of
- * STP version is enabled on the network.
+ /*
+ * For packets determined by bond_should_deliver_exact_match() call to
+ * be suppressed we want to make an exception for link-local packets.
+ * This is necessary for e.g. LLDP daemons to be able to monitor
+ * inactive slave links without being forced to bind to them
+ * explicitly.
+ *
+ * At the same time, packets that are passed to the bonding master
+ * (including link-local ones) can have their originating interface
+ * determined via PACKET_ORIGDEV socket option.
