[PATCH 4.9 07/29] bonding: ARP monitor spams NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS notifiers

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Jay Vosburgh <jay.vosburgh@canonical.com>

[ Upstream commit 7a9214f3d88cfdb099f3896e102a306b316d8707 ]

The bonding ARP monitor fails to decrement send_peer_notif, the
number of peer notifications (gratuitous ARP or ND) to be sent. This
results in a continuous series of notifications.

Correct this by decrementing the counter for each notification.
