[dpdk-stable] [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/bonding: fix slave tx burst for mode 4

[Chas Williams]

How strange. I was just looking at this issue this weekend. I think
we can just move the control packet handling before the data packet
handling. That avoids the goto and is a little more sensible -- we should
try to prioritize control traffic (even if we can't guarantee there will
be space it's better than nothing). Something like this:
