Is this an actual race? Reading Ivan's prior message, it sounds
like it's an ordering problem (in that bond_newlink calls
register_netdevice after bond_changelink).

The change to bond_option_mode_set tests against reg_state, so
presumably it wants to skip the first(?) time through, before the
register_netdevice call; is that right?
