Sorry for a long time to answer and no logs. We've been testing the
problem on irc channel. It turns out that the new kernel assigns new
names to the network interfaces i.e. the original name (in kernel 62)
was enP3168p5s3 and the new kernel assigned the same card and the same
interface a new name - enP64624p5s3, therefore - no network obviously,
as the /network/interfaces file contained old names. After submitting
new names to the config file, the network is up and stable.

Title:
  PPC new 4.4.0-63-powerpc63-smp kernel kills networking

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

Status in linux source package in Xenial:

Bug description:
  After upgrading to a new kernel (4.4.0-63-powerpc64-smp) completely
  lost ethernet. Looks like the kernel doesn't load a module for my
  interface (driver r8169). Rolling back to previous kernel version
  fixes networking.
