When ifdown isn't executed (system didn't shut down properly), bond interfaces remain in the openvswitch's database. In that case, an inconsitency is left behind when the ifcfg was modified because ovs-vsctl won't do anything to update existing bond's configuration in the database.
The ifup/ifdown will operate only on configured interfaces, so this patch fixes the issue by deleting the bond from the database before attempt to configure it with fresh configuration.
