This bug was fixed in the package vlan - 1.9-3.2ubuntu2

---------------
vlan (1.9-3.2ubuntu2) yakkety; urgency=medium

  * If VLAN is configured with higher MTU than raw device MTU, which can
    happen if VLAN is ifup'ed before raw device, then increase raw device
    MTU first so the VLAN ifup does not fail. (LP: #1224007)

Bug description:
  * Description

  When configuring a network with bonding+vlan and setting the MTU,
  occasionally the MTU doesn't get set properly on the vlan interface.

  In addition if one checks /var/log/upstart/networking.log whenever there is a failure the following message is printed:
  SIOCSIFMTU: Numerical result out of range

  I've tested the latest ifupdown package (0.7.44) and the problem still exists.
  Multi/single CPU settings both exhibit the issue.

  * Versions
  This affects latest ifupdown and ubuntu p/q/r/s.

  * Test Case

  # Create a p/q/r/s server vm with two network interfaces
  # This is reproducible on real hardware as well

  # Install the following
  sudo apt-get install vlan ifenslave-2.6 bridge-utils
  sudo modprobe bonding 8021q

  # Edit the interfaces file
  /etc/networking/interfaces:

  auto bond0
  iface bond0 inet manual
    bond-mode 802.3ad
    bond-miimon 100
    bond-lacp-rate 1
    bond-slaves eth0 eth1
    post-up ifconfig bond0 mtu 9000

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet manual
    bond-master bond0
    post-up ifconfig eth0 mtu 9000

  auto eth1
  iface eth1 inet manual
    bond-master bond0
    post-up ifconfig eth1 mtu 9000

  auto bond0.123
  iface bond0.123 inet static
    address 192.168.122.68
    netmask 255.255.255.0
    gateway 192.168.122.1
    post-up ifconfig bond0.123 mtu 9000

  # edit rc.local (or another startup script) so we reboot until we hit the error
  /etc/rc.local:

  DEVS="eth0 eth1 bond0 bond0.123"
  for d in $DEVS; do
          mtu=$(cat /sys/class/net/$d/mtu)
          if [ $mtu != 9000 ]; then
                  echo "FAIL"
                  exit 1
          fi
  done

  reboot
  exit 0

  # Now reboot the machine, within 10m or so you should be at the login prompt
  # if you ifconfig | grep MTU you will see some of our interfaces did not get 
  # the MTU properly set and the test failed.
  # Essentially we want to ensure that all MTU's (except lo) were set to 9000

  * Workaround

  Change the bond0.123 post-up command to:
    post-up sleep 2 && ifconfig bond0.123 mtu 9000

  Now when rebooting the interfaces will all be brought up with the
  proper MTU.
