bonding: fix set_multicast_list locking
This patch eliminates a problem (reported by lockdep) in the
bond_set_multicast_list function. It first reduces the locking on
bond->lock to a simple read_lock, and second, adds netif_tx locking
around the bonding mc_list manipulations that occur outside of the
set_multicast_list function.
The original problem was related to IPv6 addrconf activity.
