Bug description:

     https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-
  devel/2016-August/037385.html

  When systemd tries to put a VLAN interface into a bridge on Xenial, it
  fails:

  # journalctl --boot -u systemd-networkd

  Jan 15 09:16:46 hydrogen systemd-networkd[1903]: br-mgmt: netdev exists, using existing without changing its parameters
  Jan 15 09:16:46 hydrogen systemd-networkd[1903]: br-mgmt: Could not append VLANs: Operation not permitted

  Here are the systemd-networkd configs I used:

  root at hydrogen:/etc/systemd/network# cat enp3s0.network 
  [Match]
  Name=enp3s0
   
  [Network]
  VLAN=vlan10
  root at hydrogen:/etc/systemd/network# cat vlan10.netdev 
  [NetDev]
  Name=vlan10
  Kind=vlan
   
  [VLAN]

  root at hydrogen:/etc/systemd/network# cat vlan10.network 
  [Match]
  Name=vlan10
