	In principle, since 567b871e5033, the bond alb mode shouldn't be
load balancing incoming traffic for an IP address arriving via a bridge
configured above the bond.

	Looking at it, there's logic in rlb_arp_xmit to exclude the
bridge-over-bond case, but it relies on the MAC of traffic arriving via
the bridge being different from the bond's MAC.  I suspect this is
because 567b871e5033 was intended to manage traffic originating from
other bridge ports, and didn't consider the case of the bridge itself
when the bridge MAC equals the bond MAC.

	The bridge MAC will equal the bond MAC if the bond is the first
port added to the bridge, because the bridge will normally adopt the MAC
of the first port added (unless manually set to something else).

	I think the correct fix here is to update the test in
rlb_arp_xmit to properly exclude all bridge traffic (i.e., handle the
bridge MAC == bond MAC case), not to alter the destination MAC address
in incoming traffic.
