bonding: only use primary address for ARP

Only use the primary address of the bond device
for master_ip. This will prevent changing the ARP source
address in Active-Backup mode whenever a secondry address
is added to the bond device.

This change is good.  We need to stop overwriting bond->master_ip when
secondary addresses are added.

Inspection indicates this is safe too.  The only code that appears to
check against master_up and vlan_ip appears to be in ARP monitoring code
and it does not make much sense to use ARP monitoring when your host does
not have an IP address.
