Subject: bonding: fire NETDEV_RELEASE event only on 0 slaves
From: Veaceslav Falico <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit 80028ea1c0afc24d4ddeb8dd2a9992fff03616ca ]
Currently, if we set up netconsole over bonding and release a slave,
netconsole will stop logging on the whole bonding device. Change the
behavior to stop the netconsole only when the last slave is released.
