bonding: Make alb learning packet interval configurable

Browse source 
running bonding in ALB mode requires that learning packets be sent periodically,
so that the switch knows where to send responding traffic.  However, depending
on switch configuration, there may not be any need to send traffic at the
default rate of 3 packets per second, which represents little more than wasted
data.  Allow the ALB learning packet interval to be made configurable via sysfs

NOTE: the lp_inteval is the number of seconds between instances where
the bonding driver sends learning packets to each slaves peer switch. The
default interval is 1 second.
