Subject: [PATCH 4/8][BONDING]: Remove redundant argument from bond_create.

From: Pavel Emelyanov <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 19:01:23 +0400

While we're fixing the bond_create, I hope it's OK to polish it
a bit after the fixes.

The third argument is NULL at the first caller and is ignored by
the second one, so remove it.
