I am not really trying to make any objections to this patch, however I
can't seem to find any documented mention that just calling "dhcp" is
sufficient to bring network up in barebox.
Documentation/user/networking.rst explicitly tells one to use "ifup"
for both static and dynamic IP configurations. That being said just
calling "dhcp" used to work, so this is definitely a regression and it
might make sense to apply this fix.

Thanks,
