The following steps will definitely cause the kernel to crash:
	ip link add vrf1 type vrf table 1
	modprobe bonding.ko max_bonds=1
	echo "+vrf1" >/sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
	rmmod bonding

The root cause is that: When the VRF is added to the slave device,
it will fail, and some cleaning work will be done. because VRF device
has IFF_MASTER flag, cleanup process  will not clear the IFF_BONDING flag.
Then, when we unload the bonding module, unregister_netdevice_notifier()
will treat the VRF device as a bond master device and treat netdev_priv()
as struct bonding{} which actually is struct net_vrf{}.

By analyzing the processing logic of bond_enslave(), it seems that
it is not allowed to add the slave device with the IFF_MASTER flag, so
we need to add a code check for this situation.
