Subject: [PATCH] networkd: netdev - inform when we take over an existing
803fb7
 netdev
803fb7
803fb7
The crucial point here is that we will not change the settings of a netdev created by someone else
803fb7
we simply use it as is and trust it was set up as intended.
803fb7
803fb7
This is confusing in the case of the pre-created netdev's (bond0 etc.), the solution should probably
803fb7
be to simply make the kernel stop creating these devices as they are pretty useless.
803fb7
803fb7
(cherry picked from commit ff88a301e93cf1bddbaa7faa981f390a2a81a4bb)
