networkd manages a large number of those sysctls itself, and has knobs
for them in .network files.

If you change the relevant sysctls both via sysctl.d and via networkd
then they will constantly step on each other's toes.

Hence, if you let networkd manage your interface then let networkd
manage your interface.

Moreover, there's already a udev rule in place to re-apply network
sysctls as those interfaces appear, no need to add one manually.
