Public bug reported:

I have a yaml file as follows:

network:
    version: 2
    ethernets:
        bonddevs:
            match:
                name: ens[78]
    bonds:
        bond0:
            interfaces: [bonddevs]
            parameters:
                mode: active-backup
                mii-monitor-interval: 1
            addresses:
                - 10.10.10.1/24


Say I decide that 1s is too frequent for the MII interval, and I want to change 
the interval to 2s.

If I change that in the yaml, then run
# netplan generate
# netplan apply
# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0|grep "MII Polling Interval (ms)"
MII Polling Interval (ms): 1000

In other words, the change has not been applied.

Running netplan --debug apply prints:
DEBUG:device bond0 operstate is up, not replugging

So I wondered if bringing the bond down would help. It does not:
# ip link set dev bond0 down
# netplan apply
# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0|grep "MII Polling Interval (ms)"
MII Polling Interval (ms): 1000

However, deleting the link works:
# ip link del dev bond0
# netplan apply
# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0|grep "MII Polling Interval (ms)"
MII Polling Interval (ms): 2000

This is counter-intuitive behaviour.
Ideally, I would like a regular netplan apply to work without deleting the bond.
However, a changed to the docs to make this clear would be OK.
