The active-backup bonding mode supports XFRM ESP offload. However, when a bond is added using command like `ip link add bond0 type bond mode 1 miimon 100`, the `ethtool -k` command shows that the XFRM ESP offload is disabled. This occurs because, in bond_newlink(), we change bond link first and register bond device later. So the XFRM feature update in bond_option_mode_set() is not called as the bond device is not yet registered, leading to the offload feature not being set successfully.
To resolve this issue, we can modify the code order in bond_newlink() to ensure that the bond device is registered first before changing the bond link parameters. This change will allow the XFRM ESP offload feature to be correctly enabled.

This introduces a test for IPSec offload over bonding, utilizing netdevsim for the testing process, as veth interfaces do not support IPSec offload. The test will ensure that the IPSec offload functionality remains operational even after a failover event occurs in the bonding configuration.
Here is the test result:
TEST: bond_ipsec_offload (active_slave eth0) [ OK ] TEST: bond_ipsec_offload (active_slave eth1) [ OK ]

FYI, we got a small conflict when merging 'net' in 'net-next' in the MPTCP tree due to this patch applied in 'net':
99e4c35eada9 ("selftests: bonding: add ipsec offload test")
and this one from 'net-next':
c2377f1763e9 ("selftests: bonding: add test for LACP actor port priority")
----- Generic Message ----- The best is to avoid conflicts between 'net' and 'net-next' trees but if they cannot be avoided when preparing patches, a note about how to fix them is much appreciated.
The conflict has been resolved on our side [1] and the resolution we suggest is attached to this email. Please report any issues linked to this conflict resolution as it might be used by others. If you worked on the mentioned patches, don't hesitate to ACK this conflict resolution. ---------------------------
Regarding this conflict, I simply added the new files from both trees:
bond_passive_lacp.sh \ bond_ipsec_offload.sh \ bond_lacp_prio.sh
Note: A way to reduce such conflicts in the future is to sort each entry by alphabetical order instead of adding new ones at the end. Same in the 'config' file that is also modified in this patch.
Rerere cache is available in [2].

Thanks for the suggestion. I will update Makefile and config to use alphabet order next time.
