	I'm not sure what you've changed here for v5 as there's no
changelog, but I believe the observed problems to be a transmit side
effect (i.e., it is induced by the balance-tlb mode balancing of
outgoing traffic).  As such, the tlb side will rebalance all of the
traffic every ten seconds, so any MAC ND_OPT_*_LL_ADDR option
assignments in the outgoing NS/NA datagrams will only be valid for that
length of time, correct?

	The topology diagram and example that you've removed from the
commit log with v5 said, in part, that the issue arose because the
LL_ADDR option MAC didn't match the actual source MAC.  Since tlb mode
can reshuffle the flows every ten seconds, how did the proposed solution
work reliably?

	In any event, my real question is whether simply disabling tlb
balancing for NS/NA datagrams will resolve the observed issues (i.e.,
have bond_xmit_tlb_slave_get return NULL for IPv6 NS/NA datagrams).
Doing so will cause all NS/NA traffic to egress through the active
interface.  There's already a test in your logic to check for the
tx_slave != bond->curr_active_slave, so presumably everything works
correctly if the NS/NA goes out on the curr_active_slave.  If the "edit
NS/NA datagrams" solution works even in the face of rebalance of
traffic, then would simply assigning all NS/NA traffic to the
curr_active_slave eliminate the problem?
