Adding bond_metadata and its slave entries to represent a lag device and its slaves VF representors. Bond_metadata structure includes a unique metadata shared by slaves VF respresentors, and a list of slaves representors slave entries. On enslaving event, create a bond_metadata structure representing the upper lag device of this slave representor if it has not been created yet. Create and add entry for the slave representor to the slaves list. On unslaving event, free the slave entry of the slave representor. On the last unslave event, free the bond_metadata structure and its resources. Introduce APIs to create and remove bond_metadata and its resources, enslave and unslave VF representor slave entries.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
