virt-manager fails to detect the bridge with bond enslaved
Issue
virt-manager doesn't list the bridge devices(br0) in the "Advanced options" section when a bond interface is attached to it.
For example, create a bond device ( bond0 = eth1+eth2 ) and attach it to a bridge, br0
# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
br0 8000.c81f66d066ad no bond0
virbr0 8000.525400700906 yes virbr0-nic
Then open virt-manager GUI and try to create a VM using this bridge. Ideally the virt-manager should show up 'br0' device
in the drop down list like "Host device bond0 ( Bridge 'br0' ) , but this device doesn't appear in the device list.
