For this to work, we need to reorganize the bonding and team drivers so that the necessary flags are set before dev_open is called. commit 31e77c93e432 ("sched/fair: Update blocked load when newly idle") made this decision originally based on the IFF_SLAVE flag which isn't used by the team driver. Note, we do need to retain the IFF_SLAVE check for the eql driver.

The subject discusses what I want to do. The body of the message covers how I had to do it. The behavior of bonding with respect to addrconf isn't changed but netif_is_lag_port is picky about the flags it wants to see from bonding. So some bonding changes are necessary.
