Subject: [ovs-dev] [PATCH] bond: Fix using uninitialized 'lacp_fallback_ab_cfg' 
for 'bond-primary'.

's->lacp_fallback_ab_cfg' initialized down below in the code, so
we're using it uninitialized to detect if we need to get 'bond-primary'
configuration.

Found by valgrind:

 Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
    at 0x409114: port_configure_bond (bridge.c:4569)
    by 0x409114: port_configure (bridge.c:1284)
    by 0x40F6E6: bridge_reconfigure (bridge.c:917)
    by 0x411425: bridge_run (bridge.c:3330)
    by 0x406D84: main (ovs-vswitchd.c:127)
  Uninitialised value was created by a stack allocation
    at 0x408C53: port_configure (bridge.c:1190)

Fix that by moving this code to the point where 'lacp_fallback_ab_cfg'
already initialized.  Additionally clarified behavior of 'bond-primary'
in manpages for the fallback to AB case.

Fixes: b4e50218a0f8 ("bond: Add 'primary' interface concept for active-backup 
mode.")
