bonding: Add tlb_dynamic_lb parameter for tlb mode

The aggresive load balancing causes packet re-ordering as active
flows are moved from a slave to another within the group. Sometime
this aggresive lb is not necessary if the preference is for less
re-ordering. This parameter if used with value "0" disables
this dynamic flow shuffling minimizing packet re-ordering. Of course
the side effect is that it has to live with the static load balancing
that the hashing distribution provides. This impact is less severe if
the correct xmit-hashing-policy is used for the tlb setup.

The default value of the parameter is set to "1" mimicing the earlier
behavior.

Ran the netperf test with 200 stream for 1 min between two hosts with
4x1G trunk (xmit-lb mode with xmit-policy L3+4) before and after these
changes. Following was the command used for those 200 instances -

    netperf -t TCP_RR -l 60 -s 5 -H <host> -- -r81920,81920

Transactions per second:
    Before change: 1,367.11
    After  change: 1,470.65

This option was added for bonding version 3.6.0.
tlb_dynamic_lb
Specifies if dynamic shuffling of flows is enabled in tlb
mode. The value has no effect on any other modes.
The default behavior of tlb mode is to shuffle active flows across
slaves based on the load in that interval. This gives nice lb
characteristics but can cause packet reordering. If re-ordering is
a concern use this variable to disable flow shuffling and rely on
load balancing provided solely by the hash distribution.
xmit-hash-policy can be used to select the appropriate hashing for
the setup.
The sysfs entry can be used to change the setting per bond device
and the initial value is derived from the module parameter. The
sysfs entry is allowed to be changed only if the bond device is
down.
The default value is "1" that enables flow shuffling while value "0"
disables it. This option was added in bonding driver 3.7.1
