[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] dnsmasq: Ignore carrier status for bridge interfaces

dnsmasq sometimes does not listen for DHCP at bootup on lan (see bug FS#1765).

This occurs because netifd can incorrectly indicate carrier down on an
interface through devstatus after issuing a carrier up hotplug event.

This patch ignores carrier status for bridge interfaces, as this does not
reflect media state so is not a useful check.
