After updating from kernel 5.1.16 to 5.2, I noticed that my
systemd-networkd (241-5, Debian/unstable) managed bridges didn't
come up and needed a manual "ip link set dev br-lan up" to get
configured. Bisecting between v5.1 and v5.2 pointed to this
patch and reverting just this change from v5.2 fixes the issue
for me again.

# first bad commit: [7dc2bccab0ee37ac28096b8fcdc390a679a15841] Validate required parameters in inet6_validate_link_af

While I originally noticed this issue on real hardware (r8169, e1000,
e1000e, e100, alx) and multiple systems with a slightly complex bridge
setup, I can reproduce it with a very basic configuration under kvm
(upon which all the tests below are based):

$ cat /etc/systemd/network/20-wired.network
[Match]
Name=ens4

[Network]
DHCP=yes

(same results with just DHCP=ipv4)

With the above systemd-networkd configuration, the system comes up
without network access:

# ip a

  2 ens4             ether              off         configuring

Manually enabling the interface does help:

A quick test of upgrading all systemd packages to 242-2 from
Debian/experimental shows the same issue; Debian 10/ buster (stable)
is shipping with systemd 241-5.

DHCPv4 is served by a recent OpenWrt/ master snapshot on ipq8065/ nbg6817
(ARMv7), using dnsmasq 2.80-13 and odhcpd-ipv6only 2019-05-17-41a74cba-3
covering DHCPv6 and prefix delegation.

Attached are xz compressed versions of the kernel configuration (amd64),
dmesg and journalctl output.

The Debian/unstable VM was started with qemu-kvm 1:3.1+dfsg-8 on a
Debian/unstable host running kernel 5.2 with this patch reverted:
