[PATCHv2 net] bonding: fix multicast MAC address synchronization

[Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@gmail.com>]

There is a corner case where the NS (Neighbor Solicitation) target is set to
an invalid or unreachable address. In such cases, all the slave links are
marked as down and set to *backup*. This causes the bond to add multicast MAC
addresses to all slaves. The ARP monitor then cycles through each slave to
probe them, temporarily marking as *active*.

Later, if the NS target is changed or cleared during this probe cycle, the
*active* slave will fail to remove its NS multicast address because
bond_slave_ns_maddrs_del() only removes addresses from backup slaves.
This leaves stale multicast MACs on the interface.

To fix this, we move the NS multicast MAC address handling into
bond_set_slave_state(), so every slave state transition consistently
adds/removes NS multicast addresses as needed.

We also ensure this logic is only active when arp_interval is configured,
to prevent misconfiguration or accidental behavior in unsupported modes.

Note: Cleanup in __bond_release_one() is retained to remove addresses
when the slave is unbound from the bond.

v2:
1) Make sure arp_interval is set befer setting slave mac address.
2) add comment about why we need to set slave->backup between two if blocks
3) update commit description
