bond_na_send() attempts to insert a VLAN tag in between building and
sending packets of the respective formats.  If the slave does not
implement hardware VLAN tag insertion then vlan_put_tag() will mangle
the network-layer header because the Ethernet header is not present at
this point (unlike in bond_arp_send()).

Fix this by adding the tag out-of-line and relying on
dev_hard_start_xmit() to insert it inline if necessary.
