Subject: bonding: fix the err path for dev hwaddr sync in bond_enslave

From: Xin Long <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 5c78f6bfae2b10ff70e21d343e64584ea6280c26 ]

vlan_vids_add_by_dev is called right after dev hwaddr sync, so on the err path it should unsync dev hwaddr. Otherwise, the slave dev's hwaddr will never be unsync when this err happens.
