Fix dhclient removing the IP address on renew

Details
For some reason, `dhclient` fires an *EXPIRE* event every time it renews the DHCP lease, even if the lease has not expired. `dhclient-script` then removes the IP address from the interface, which of course breaks the connection to the NBD server and blocks all reads from the root filesystem. To avoid this strange situation, we need to stop `dhclient-script` acting on the *EXPIRE* event. Luckily, it provides a "hook" mechanism that we can use; since the hook script is dot-sourced, we can just `exit` the process to avoid any further changes in that run.pull/1/head
