      Definition of Done:

      Please mark each item below with ( / ) if completed or ( x ) if incomplete:

      ( ) The acceptance criteria defined below are met.

      Given a system administrator using Nmstate for automated OCP cluster deployment and defining an nmpolicy, 

      When they define an Nmspolicy  "capture" expression that selects interfaces by description and one or more matching interfaces are in a "down" state, 

      Then Nmstate must still retrieve necessary attributes like "name" and "mac-address" from system state and allow policy execution to proceed without error when attempting to resolve the capture expressions. 

      ( ) Code changes are included in a downstream build attached to an errata.

      ( ) All required testing (manual and/or automated) passes successfully.

      ( ) Related documentation updates (if applicable) have been completed.

      ( ) All necessary backports to the related RHEL streams (linked as 'relates' in this issue) have been completed and verified.

      When using 

      capture:
  primary-nic: interfaces.description == "primary"
  secondary-nic: interfaces.description == "secondary"

      The capture will fail if one of the links is down, NO-CARRIER

      We are using capture to select bonding NICs.

      The link is down to prevent duplicate DHCP addresses.

      This is a common case when using DHCP with bonding, because each of the bond slaves will get DHCP before the bond is created.

      We need to be able to create the bond even if a link is down.
