Perhaps it could change the delay to be extremely short (or
non-existent?) for VLAN devices? Currently, starting 1000 VLAN devices
is very painful even without trying to add IP addresses.

Adding IP addresses is even more painful, at least with the Fedora
initscripts, but that is not a kernel issue.

The other option is to just start the devices in parallel.
