I went ahead and committed a documentation patch in 152dd61.

However, looking more closely (in QEMU), I noticed that
‘dhcp-client-service’ also needs to set the interfaces up before calling
‘dhclient’, hence commit 9bb34f9.

Now, I wonder what has changed.  I recall that this was not needed in
the past, so perhaps a change in Linux-libre 4.0.2 made interfaces down
by default or something like that.  Any ideas?
