Needed because IFF_MASTER is an unreliable identifier (vlan interfaces above bonding will inherit IFF_MASTER). Misidentification of devices would cause notifier events for other devices to be erroneously processed by bonding, causing various havoc. Bug discovered by Martin Papik ; this patch is modified from his original.
