bonding/vlan: Avoid mangled NAs on slaves without VLAN tag insertion
This is related to commit f88a4a9b65a6f3422b81be995535d0e69df11bb8
upstream, but the bug cannot be properly fixed without the other
changes to VLAN tagging in 2.6.37.
bond_na_send() attempts to insert a VLAN tag in between building and
sending packets of the respective formats. If the slave does not
implement hardware VLAN tag insertion then vlan_put_tag() will mangle
the network-layer header because the Ethernet header is not present at
this point (unlike in bond_arp_send()).
