Yes, we can just delete this extra test, since requested slave_id wont
be found anyway if negative.

Thanks

bond_slave_info_query() should keep a read lock while accessing slave info,
or risk accessing stale data and corruption.

	I don't think that's actually true, since changes to the data
being referenced are (should be) protected by RTNL, and
bond_slave_info_query runs via ioctl, and is holding RTNL.

	Nevertheless, the patch does make the function cleaner, so I
have no objections.
