Drop sysctl.d/00-system.conf
This file now only contains lines to disable netfilter on bridges. In kernel 3.18 this filtering functionality was made non-default by moving it to br_netfilter [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512206]. Aybody who actually wants to use br_netfilter has to load it explicitly anyway, so disabling it through sysctl isn't necessary anymore. The reason for removal is that by default (i.e. when br_netfilter is not loaded), we get a warning on every boot: systemd-sysctl[210]: Couldn't write '0' to 'net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-ip6tables', ignoring: No such file or directory systemd-sysctl[210]: Couldn't write '0' to 'net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-iptables', ignoring: No such file or directory systemd-sysctl[210]: Couldn't write '0' to 'net/bridge/bridge-nf-call-arptables', ignoring: No such file or directory This is confusing for users and inelegant. The downside of removing this file is for people who load br_netfilter for some reason *and* do no want to use it, will have to take an additional step now (either restore the sysctl settings or remove br_netfilter from /etc/modules-load.d or wherever). I expect the number of people affected to be very small. (Note that the file was overwritten on sparc and s390, so those architectures see no change.)
