Public bug reported:
When cloud-init configures networking, it uses `ifup`. However, after
cloud-init is done, networking.service runs and attempts an `ifup -a
--read-environment` it fails since the devices are already configured
with a "RTNETLINK answers: File exists" (return code of 1).
The end result is that any service with a dependency of networking fails
to start.
