This reverts commit d2fa6c676a13e86acc7f17261b2d87484f625d45.
When doing a restart, the routing table will open ports as system, which
prevents internal ports to be opened with the right type. That causes failures
in creating the ports.
I am sending this as an RFC, as I will try to fix it on the routing table layer
before 2.6 branches. If I can't find a proper fix by then, we should probably
revert it and try it again later.
