LACP frequently changes active/backup links. driver must also handle
dp->lag_tx_enabled.
This should only affect egress LAG table, ingress should not be touched.
To test, connect a known working 802.3ad compatible switch (Mikrotik).
Configure bond with 802.3ad on openwrt as well as mikrotik.
Observer active/backup links on openwrt with
```
for iface in <list of bond participants>; do
ip -d link show $iface
done
```
This should show ACTIVE/BACKUP status which must be synchronized with
the partner's ACTIVE/BACKUP status if LACP is working correctly.
Backup interface must not be chosen by the distribution algorithm to
transmit egress packet
At the moment, we have two parties involved in the selection of active LAG TX
ports:
- the bonding/DSA code which informs about activated/deactivated ports using
.port_lag_change
- the HW which is deactivating ports based on the link state see
RTL93XX_TRK_CTRL_LINK_DOWN_AVOID
In our case, the software is supposed to manage everything
