auto: try to ip link set <dev> up at boot. Best choice for
anything PCIe/SoC.
allow-hotplug: *wait* for kernel+drivers+udev to detect the device,
then ip link set <dev> up it. The only thing that can
deal with annoying USB, SDIO, etc.
This can be kinda important when non-auto-loading stuff is involved, or
when network file systems are involved.
So, look at what *exact* kind of network device you're dealing with.
