      Description of problem:
      In Azure, if enable SR-IOV, there must be a rule to make NetworkManager ignore the SRIOV interface:
      cat /etc/udev/rules.d/68-azure-sriov-nm-unmanaged.rules:

      1. Accelerated Networking on Azure exposes a new SRIOV interface to the VM.
      2. This interface is transparently bonded to the synthetic interface,
      3. so NetworkManager should just ignore any SRIOV interfaces.
        SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="hv_pci", ACTION=="add", ENV {NM_UNMANAGED}

        ="1"

      This rule works in RHEL-8. However, it doesn't work in RHEL-9. The NetworkManager-wait-online.service still fail:
