[2.2b3] MAAS reports DHCP is running but it is not

[Andres Rodriguez]

MAAS reports that DHCP is successfully running (under the controllers page), but it is not. This is what I see in syslog:

Same issue is observed with maas 2.2.0~beta4+bzr5856-0ubuntu1~16.04.1

[Blake Rouse (blake-rouse)]

I have been trying to reproduce this with latest master that includes https://code.launchpad.net/~blake-rouse/maas/+git/maas/+merge/342811 which I believe was the actual cause of this issue.
