[systemd-devel] timesyncd log messages galore

Hi,


My journal get spammed with messages from timesyncd, claiming a changed 
network connection. However, I have not touched the network 
configuration at all and the ntp even happens to be on the same subnet. 
No DHCP either.

Here two examples, 200 messages in 20 minutes uptime, or 5800 of them in 
11 hours:

# journalctl -b0 | grep "Network configuration changed, trying to 
establish connection." | wc -l
199

# uptime
  19:29:34 up 21 min,  3 users,  load average: 1,07, 1,04, 0,87

Another machine:

# journalctl -b0 | grep "Network configuration changed, trying to 
establish connection." | wc -l
5755
# uptime
  19:32:20 up 10:28,  2 users,  load average: 1.21, 1.20, 1.20

Any idea how to stop this? This has been going on for quite a while now, 
but seems to get worse.

systemd 247.3, kernel 5.4.80 and 5.10.14
