bonding: prevent sysfs from allowing arp monitoring with alb/tlb



When using module options arp monitoring and balance-alb/balance-tlb
are mutually exclusive options.  Anytime balance-alb/balance-tlb are
enabled mii monitoring is forced to 100ms if not set.  When configuring
via sysfs no checking is currently done.

Handling these cases with sysfs has to be done a bit differently because
we do not have all configuration information available at once.  This
patch will not allow a mode change to balance-alb/balance-tlb if
arp_interval is already non-zero.  It will also not allow the user to
set a non-zero arp_interval value if the mode is already set to
balance-alb/balance-tlb.  They are still mutually exclusive on a
first-come, first serve basis.

Tested with initscripts on Fedora and manual setting via sysfs.
