[ 103/108] bonding: Manage /proc/net/bonding/ entries from the netdev events

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a64d49c3dd504b685f9742a2f3dcb11fb8e4345f upstream.

It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network
namespaces causes warnings from /proc.  It turns out after the move we
were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the
wrong network namespace.

Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration
will always happen at the right time.
