[systemd-devel] systemd-networkd 219 chokes on can device

[Mads]

With the help of grawity on irc, I assembled this small patch file for a 
possible temporary workaround. Just hardcoded systemd-networkd to not 
touch the can0 interface.

Unfortunately, it doesn't fix the problem completely. The 
systemd-networkd log now appears during boot exactly like the log in my 
previous mail when I manually restarted the service (at timestamp 
09:50:53), so it doesn't try to link_add can0 anymore. But my eth0 and 
eth1 interfaces still doesn't go up (not after manually invoking 
`systemctl restart systemd-networkd´ either). They just get configured, 
not upped.

What does the workaround lack to make that work?
