Commit 655f8919d549ad1872e24d826b6ce42530516d2e
    bonding: add min links parameter to 802.3ad

and commit ebd8e4977a87cb81d93c62a9bff0102a9713722f
    bonding: add all_slaves_active parameter

introduced new options to bonding, but didn't provide the documentation
for those options.

V2: add the default value for both options.
V3: document the exact behavior of min_links default value.

+min_links
+
+        Specifies the minimum number of links that must be active before
+        asserting carrier. It is similar to the Cisco EtherChannel min-links
+        feature. This allows setting the minimum number of member ports that
+        must be up (link-up state) before marking the bond device as up
+        (carrier on). This is useful for situations where higher level services
+        such as clustering want to ensure a minimum number of low bandwidth

+        The default value is 0. This will cause carrier to be asserted (for
+        802.3ad mode) whenever there is an active aggregator, regardless of the
+        number of available links in that aggregator. Note that, because an
+        aggregator cannot be active without at least one available link,
+        setting this option to 0 or to 1 has the exact same effect.
