Title:
  udev duplicates entries in 70-persistent-net.rules

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [SRU justification]
  Without this fix, duplicate entries may render the system unbootable

  [Impact]
  Under certain race condition, the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules may contain duplicate entries.

  [Fix]
  Verify the content of the file prior to re-writing the rule.

  [Test Case]
  $ rm /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
  $ typeset -i I=0 && while (( I <= 20));do echo add > /sys/class/net/eth0/uevent ;((I+=1));done

  Without the patch, there will be 20 identical entries in the file.

  [Regression]
  None expected, the modification is already in Vivid, Wily and Debian

  [Original description of the problem]
  After a fresh installation of 14.04, I had various troubles with the ethernet NIC.  Long story short, there were duplicate entries in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules .
  The 70-persistent-net.rules file has 5 entries for a 4 port NIC (Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe).
