[Bug 1727301] Re: 229-4ubuntu20 added ARP option breaks existing bonding interfaces

  this breaks existing configurations with bonding on upgrading from
  229-4ubuntu19 to 229-4ubuntu20 on xenial
  
  as bond interfaces are now by default configured without ARP. Hence you
  suddenly lose network connectivity on upgrade. Very bad for a SRU.
  
  Plus adding "ARP=yes" to the Link section of a .network file does not
  work.
  
  Before this update, bond interfaces (specifically 802.3ad) were
  defaulting to ARP enabled. After the upgrade, they are created with
  NOARP set on the link.
  
  pre-upgrade:
  
  eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP>
  eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP>
  bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
  
  post-upgrade:
  eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,NOARP,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP>
  eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,NOARP,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP>
  bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,NOARP,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
