Subject: [PATCH] hwdb,rules: mark host-to-host network devices as only
requiring link local addressing
This is a generalization of this logic:
https://github.com/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/blob/main/data/90-nm-thunderbolt.rules
It applies not just to thunderbolt, but to any kind of device, even
matched by vendor/product, via hwdb.
I added two entries for Prolific PC-to-PC devices (of which I have one
lying around).
(cherry picked from commit ec541c569bd19bbb81791139371111a9a7f1a3d8)
