bonding: Deadlock between bonding_store_bonds and bond_destroy_sysfs. 

The sysfs layer has an internal protection, that ensures, that
all the process sitting inside ->sore/->show callback exits
before the appropriate entry is unregistered (the calltraces
are rather big, but I can provide them if required).

On the other hand, bonding takes rtnl_lock in
a) the bonding_store_bonds, i.e. in ->store callback,
b) module exit before calling the sysfs unregister routines.

Thus, the classical AB-BA deadlock may occur. To reproduce run
# while :; do modprobe bonding; rmmod bonding; done
and
# while :; do echo '+bond%d' > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters ; done
in parallel.

The fix is to move the bond_destroy_sysfs out of the rtnl_lock,
but _before_ bond_free_all to make sure no bonding devices exist
after module unload.
