Description of problem:

A bug was introduced in NMState that causes it to fail to apply OVS bonds. This has recently become an important use case for OpenShift because we have customers using OVS bonds in production deployments.

While this has been fixed in the latest versions of NMState, I'm opening this bug to ensure we don't accidentally pull in one of the broken releases to RHCOS.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

4.16.39

How reproducible:

    Always

Steps to Reproduce:

    1. Attempt to apply an ovs bond configuration using Kubernetes-NMState
    2.
    3.
    

Actual results:

    Reapply operation failed on 802-3-ethernet  f867f6db-0b83-40cf-ac29-00c8fceefd29, reason: Bug:Failed to extract interface name and type from connection NmConnection

Expected results:

    Configuration applied successfully
