Bonding can erroneously register the same packet_type to receive
ARPs (for use by ARP validation): once at device open time, and once via
sysfs. Since sysfs can change the validate setting (and thus register
or unregister) at any time, a flag is needed to synchronize with device
open in order to avoid double registrations, and the simplest place is
within the packet_type structure itself. Double unregister is not an
issue.
