[PATCH 3/4] bond_alb: don't tx balance multicast traffic either

[Jarod Wilson]

Multicast traffic going out the non-primary interface can come back in
through the primary interface in alb mode. When there's a bridge sitting
on top of the bond, with virtual machines behind it, attached to vnetX
interfaces also acting as bridge ports, this can cause problems. The
multicast traffic ends up rewriting the bridge forwarding database
entries, replacing a vnetX entry in the fdb with the bond instead, at
which point, we lose traffic. If we don't tx balance multicast traffic, we
don't break connectivity.
