Re: [PATCH net 2/2] selftests: bonding: add test for passive LACP mode

Add a selftest to verify bonding behavior when `lacp_active` is set to `off`.

The test checks the following:

• The passive LACP bond should not send LACPDUs before receiving a partner's LACPDU.
• The transmitted LACPDUs must not include the active flag.
• After transitioning to EXPIRED and DEFAULTED states, the passive side should still not initiate LACPDUs.

Strangely this test fails on a normal kernel build but passes with debug options enabled:
