For active-backup, tlb, and alb mode, bond_ethdev_promiscuous_{enable,disable} tries to set promisc mode on the primary port, even when there are no slaves. It is harmless, as rte_eth_promiscuous_{enable,disable} does nothing if the port number is invalid. But, it does print a warning message. Here is an example from testpmd.
testpmd> create bonded device 5 0 Created new bonded device net_bonding_testpmd_0 on (port 4). Invalid port_id=33 testpmd> set promisc 4 off Invalid port_id=33 33 in this case is RTE_MAX_ETHPORTS + 1, the invalid primary port number used within the bonding driver. This warning message is harmless but can be confusing to the user. So do not try to set promisc on a primary port when we know it does not exist (i.e. no slaves).
