> Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added

> the ones at the time of these operations.
>
> Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour
> of default config values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519).
>
> This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
> same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
> set by the user since the inet device's creation.
