You can't do this in bond_xmit_tlb_slave_get(), there's no check if the IPv6 header
is in the linear part before calling alb_determine_nd() there. You can combine
bond_xmit_alb_slave_get's IPv6 header pull with alb_determine_nd's, just please leave
a comment above the call in bond_xmit_alb_slave_get() that the IPv6 header is pulled by
alb_determine_nd.

This could invalidate current pointers to skb data, more below...

... here you have to reload ip6hdr, but that can be avoided in a few different ways.
I.e. you could move alb_determine_nd() before the assignment of that ptr.
