You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton):

[Impact]

 * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users and

 * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release.

 * In addition, it is helpful, but not required, to include an
   explanation of how the upload fixes this bug.

[Test Plan]

 * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug

 * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
   package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
   the problem.

 * if other testing is appropriate to perform before landing this update,
   this should also be described here.

[Where problems could occur]

 * Think about what the upload changes in the software. Imagine the change is
   wrong or breaks something else: how would this show up?

 * It is assumed that any SRU candidate patch is well-tested before
   upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
   to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the
   event of a regression.

 * This must '''never''' be "None" or "Low", or entirely an argument as to why
   your upload is low risk.

 * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
   and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.

[Other Info]
 
 * Anything else you think is useful to include
 * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and the Technical Board
 * and address these questions in advance

[Original Description]

https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html has a
number of [Link] options which I need to use for a flaky network card
(TCPSegmentationOffload, TCP6SegmentationOffload,
GenericSegmentationOffload, GenericReceiveOffload, LargeReceiveOffload)
which are not exposed via netplan.
