From 7a9214f3d88cfdb099f3896e102a306b316d8707 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jay Vosburgh Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2022 12:32:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] bonding: ARP monitor spams NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS notifiers The bonding ARP monitor fails to decrement send_peer_notif, the number of peer notifications (gratuitous ARP or ND) to be sent. This results in a continuous series of notifications. Correct this by decrementing the counter for each notification.
