Here is a trivial testcase:
openvpn --mktun --dev tun0
echo +tun0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves

Worked fine before your patch, no longer works after your patch.  Works
again after my patch.

Using bonding in balance-rr mode, there doesn't seem to be a need to
change the mac address.  I suppose you might care in other modes, but I
don't.
