Sorry to ask, what is this case: 'ip=dhcp'?
Care to clarify?

not really... the provisioning stuff does not seem to work for the 'ip=dhcp' 
case.

I know that this case is not handled well with this patch either (it misses 
renewal of dhcp leases, setup of dns + ntp).  But it is still better than 
actual behavior.

On first glance, the do-not-cleanup patch in connman seems to cover system 
startup only.  I might miss something, but afais, interface will be still shut 
down in the middle of reboot which is bad because '/' is needed nearly to the 
end of shutdown.
