bonding: make arp_ip_target parameter checks consistent with sysfs

nikolay@redhat.com · davem330 · commit 90fb6250c509 · 2012-11-29T13:13:15.000-05:00
The module can be loaded with arp_ip_target="255.255.255.255" which makes
 it impossible to remove as the function in sysfs checks for that value,
 so we make the parameter checks consistent with sysfs.

 v2: Fix formatting
 v3: Make description text &lt; 75 columns
