Subject: Wrong source MAC for DHCP requests with AddressRandomization=network

Hi
When setting AddressRandomization=network in main.conf, I am unable to
connect to networks because I don't get a DHCP reply after the L2
connection.
Looking at a packet dump, it seems the DHCP request uses the wrong
source MAC in the request:
12:42:27.268867 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0 > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 342: 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 26:db:f3:cb:58:e2, length 300
Running 'dhcpcd' uses the right source MAC, and gets a reply:
12:42:28.631616 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0 > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 342: 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0, length 300
12:42:28.634842 92:0a:9a:27:ca:65 > 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 359: 10.42.3.33.67 > 10.42.3.52.68: BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 317
12:42:28.635323 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0 > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 342: 0.0.0.0.68 > 255.255.255.255.67: BOOTP/DHCP, Request from 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0, length 300
12:42:28.636450 92:0a:9a:27:ca:65 > 1e:aa:ca:6d:0d:e0, ethertype IPv4 (0x0800), length 359: 10.42.3.33.67 > 10.42.3.52.68: BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 317
The initial connection after starting iwd works, but connecting to
another network later fails, so it seems to be related to the
per-network MAC address selection. Changing the config to
AddressRandomization=once makes this issue go away.
This issue occurs with both iwd 2.8 and 2.9 (on Arch Linux and iwlwifi
hardware).
