Bonding: fix zero address hole bug in arp_ip_target list

Fix a zero address hole bug in the bonding arp_ip_target list
that was causing the bond to ignore ARP replies (bugz 13006).
Instead of just setting the array entry to zero, we now
copy any additional entries down one slot, putting the
zero entry at the end.  With this change we can now have
all the loops that walk the array stop when they hit a zero
since there will be no addresses after it.

Changes are based in part on code fragment provided in kernel:
