[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#841509: some types of devices should be ignored when forcing the online status

[Aron Xu]

Package: network-manager
Severity: normal

In Force-online-state-with-unmanaged-devices.patch, status is forced
to online when there are unmanaged devices which status are up. This
would confuse users who have local bridges (for VMs, containers, etc)
while disconnected from real network (ethernet, wifi) because
nm-applet shows an ethernet connected icon.

Shall we improve the patch by excluding some types of devices like
bridges, infiniband? Or can we drop this patch completely?

Cheers,
Aron
