[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 33/57] bonding: fix active-backup transition after link failure

[Sasha Levin]

From: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 5d485ed88d48f8101a2067348e267c0aaf4ed486 ]

After the recent fix in commit 1899bb325149 ("bonding: fix state
transition issue in link monitoring"), the active-backup mode with
miimon initially come-up fine but after a link-failure, both members
transition into backup state.

Following steps to reproduce the scenario (eth1 and eth2 are the
slaves of the bond):

    ip link set eth1 up
    ip link set eth2 down
    sleep 1
    ip link set eth2 up
    ip link set eth1 down
    cat /sys/class/net/eth1/bonding_slave/state
    cat /sys/class/net/eth2/bonding_slave/state
