I don't see this change in current master. Does it goes to 1.2.19 or to 1.2.20?
It was pushed on on Monday, commit id
bbc705d1309b8ec2eb4cdae011dc702802c96d11. It will be in 1.2.19. I took
the liberty of expanding the commit log message, so you may not have
recognized it:

Eliminate incorrect and unnecessary check for changed IP address
Commit aa2cc7 modified a previously unnecessary but innocuous check
for interface IP address during interface update incorrectly, causing
all attempted updates (e.g. changing link state) to interfaces of
type='ethernet' for QEMU to fail.
This patch fixes the issue by completely removing the check for IP
address, which is pointless since QEMU doesn't support setting
interface IP addresses from the domain interface XML anyway.
