The only user of the net_device->last_rx field is bonding.
This patch adds a conditional update of last_rx to the bonding special
logic in skb_bond_should_drop, causing last_rx to only be updated when
the ARP monitor is running.
This frees network device drivers from the necessity of
updating last_rx, which can have cache line thrash issues.
