bonding: fix panic on non-ARPHRD_ETHER enslave failure
Since commit 7d5cd2ce529b, when bond_enslave fails on devices that are not ARPHRD_ETHER, if needed, it resets the bonding device back to ARPHRD_ETHER by calling ether_setup. Unfortunately, ether_setup clobbers dev->flags, clearing IFF_UP if the bond device is up, leaving it in a quasi-down state without having actually gone through dev_close. For bonding, if any periodic work queue items are active (miimon, arp_interval, etc), those will remain running, as they are stopped by bond_close. At this point, if the bonding module is unloaded or the bond is deleted, the system will panic when the work function is called. This panic is resolved by calling dev_close on the bond itself prior to calling ether_setup.
