Title:
  systemd 229-4ubuntu6 ignores net.ifnames=0 on USB or
  /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules being a /dev/null symlink

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  In Progress
Status in systemd package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:        16.04

  The upgrade to systemd/udev 229-4ubuntu6 breaks net.ifnames=0 for USB
  devices.

  It appears the regression is here:
  * Set MAC based name for USB network interfaces only for universally
      administered (i. e. stable) MACs, not for locally administered (i. e.
      randomly generated) ones. Drop /lib/systemd/network/90-mac-for-usb.link
      (as link files don't currently support globs for MACAddress=) and replace
      with an udev rule in /lib/udev/rules.d/73-special-net-names.rules.
      (Closes: #812575, LP: #1574483)

  As Raspberry Pi's use eth0 via USB, this breaks running systems.

  Before:
  ii  systemd        229-4ubuntu4 armhf        system and service manager
  ii  udev           229-4ubuntu4 armhf        /dev/ and hotplug management daem

  3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether b8:27:eb:16:39:e9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  After:

  ii  systemd                      229-4ubuntu6        armhf               system and service manager
  ii  udev                         229-4ubuntu6        armhf               /dev/ and hotplug management daemon

  3: enxb827eb1639e9: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
      link/ether b8:27:eb:16:39:e9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  With the default interfaces configuration, all networking is lost on
  reboot after upgrade.

  
  SRU TEST CASE
  =============
   * Boot with "net.ifnames=0" on the kernel command line, and connect an USB ethernet device. It will still be called enxDEADBEEF with current xenial. With the -proposed version it will instead keep the kernel name, like "usb0" as intended.

   * Do "sudo ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules"
  (the other documented way to disable ifnames) and do the above
  connect/name check test again.
