Public bug reported:

After installing a base Ubuntu 18.04.1 server, an additional OSA device "e530" 
is attached and configured with chzdev. Then a VLAN configuration should be 
applied using the ip command.
However this results in the error message "RTNETLINK answers: File exists". 

>----snip----
ip link add link ence530 name ence530.209 type vlan id 209
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
----snip----<

Executing the same steps on an Ubuntu 16.04.5 server, the ip command
finishes without an error message but the VLAN interface is also not
configured.

Reproduction:

- Install a 18.04.1 server
- attach an additional OSA interface
- configure a VLAN using the ip command
