Public bug reported:

I'm not sure what's changed but in previous versions of cloud-init, it
was not owning/writing contents to /etc/sysconfig/network.

I DHCP my ntp endpoints and provide ntp options via NTPSERVERARGS.
Example:

echo 'NTPSERVERARGS="minpoll 3 maxpoll 4"' >> /etc/sysconfig/network

$ grep server /etc/ntp.conf
server 10.155.55.1 minpoll 3 maxpoll 4  # added by /sbin/dhclient-script


On boot now /etc/sysconfig/network only has:
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/network
# Created by cloud-init on instance boot automatically, do not edit.
#
NETWORKING=yes

So how can i prevent cloud-init from modifying it, or have it write the
additional option (NTPSERVERARGS) that i need?
