Title:
  dhclient doesn't receive dhcp offer from kernel

Bug description:
  Platform: Qemu/libvirt on AMD64
  Ubuntu version: 20.04
  isc-dhcp-client version: 4.4.1-2.1ubuntu5
  Problem: When dhclient is used during boot every few reboots the DHCP OFFER 
packets aren't pushed from the kernel to dhclient. The DISCOVER packets can be 
seen in strace and tcpdump. The OFFER packets can be seen in tcpdump, but no 
read event is triggered.
  Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't have the problem, neither does Debian 10. Building these 
dhclient versions on Ubuntu 20.04 alleviates the problem a little, but it still 
occurs. So this issue might also be kernel related.

  Attached diff shows a strace of all threads and a pcap showing the
  tcpdump output.

  Edit:
  - Sometimes the dhclient command does receive the OFFER packet and connection 
is restored.
  - In my testing running dhclient manually from the terminal when the OFFERs 
aren't received will result in a new dhclient session which does receive the 
OFFER packet and connection is restored.
