[PATCH] bonding: fix bond-6-mode change MAC of arp reply from vif to cause Domu's network unreachable intermittently

[zheng.li]

This is a fix for a bug in bond_alb.c
Rate of reproduced:100%
Scenario: set Dom0 to bond 6 mode, Domu communicate with Dom0 through
vif which is in bridge mode. The Dom0's bridge of xenbr0 contains vif
and bond0, bond0 contains eth0 and eth1. You can just need to ping a
host which is in same LAN on
Domu, some of packets will be lost intermittently.
Analyse: When Dom0 set bond mode to 6(alb), the bond_alb will change MAC
of every arp reply in rlb_arp_xmit function to affect receive packets,
it is ok for normal NIC, but it's wrong to Domu, when Domu send arp
reply through vif of Dom0, bond of alb replace Domu's MAC in arp reply
with NIC's MAC address, that will cause remote host send packets to Domu
using real NIC's MAC instead of Domu's MAC. Domu
can't receive the packets whose dst MAC is not Domu's MAC.

You commit message is poorly formatted and your email client corrupted
