I hate network mangler as much as the next guy but is it really worth all of
the whining when all it takes to disable it is:

systemctl disable NetworkManager
systemctl enable network
systemctl stop NetworkManager
systemctl start network

And now you are back to the old behavior. Red Hat even went to the trouble
of documenting it for you at
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html/Virtualization_Deployment_and_Administration_Guide/sect-Network_configuration-Bridged_networking_with_libvirt.html
