Public bug reported: The reproducer:
create a xenial vm. There, run lxc launch ubuntu: leave that container running, and reboot. If you're "lucky", networking will never come up: [[0;32m OK [0m] Found device /sys/subsystem/net/devices/lxdbr0.

I cannot reproduce it locally with uvt-kvm. What appears to be happening is that lxd starts lxd-bridge which creates lxdbr0 with no ipv4 address; this racily happens before systemd does its networking setup; said network setup then sees lxdbr0 and wants to configure it, so waits for it to have an ip address.
