====================
bonding: fix negotiation flapping in 802.3ad passive mode

This patch fixes unstable LACP negotiation when bonding is configured in
passive mode (`lacp_active=off`).

Previously, the actor would stop sending LACPDUs after initial negotiation
succeeded, leading to the partner timing out and restarting the negotiation
cycle. This resulted in continuous LACP state flapping.

The fix ensures the passive actor starts sending periodic LACPDUs after
receiving the first LACPDU from the partner, in accordance with IEEE
802.1AX-2020 section 6.4.1.
