This bug was fixed in the package initramfs-tools - 0.122ubuntu8.7
---------------
initramfs-tools (0.122ubuntu8.7) xenial; urgency=medium
* scripts/functions: clean up configure_networking and the function
all_netbootable_interfaces to not have side-effects. (LP: #1621507)
initramfs-tools (0.122ubuntu8.6) xenial; urgency=medium
[ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ]
* scripts/functions: for configure_networking:
- split out IPv6 options in its own cmdline parameter: ip6= ; always use
dhclient in this case if the value set is anything other than 'off' or
'none'. Furthermore, parse anything other than 'on', 'dhcp' or 'any' as
the name of an interface. (LP: #1621507)
- rework the stop conditions so that we properly handle the ROUNDTTT loop,
timing out after a short period of time and trying again after a short
sleep.
- add a 'done' parameter for both ip= and ip6= so that we can properly
exit the ROUNDTTT loop once we know that either there is no work to do,
or that we've achieved what we wanted (that is, to bring up IPv4, IPv6,
or possibly both).
- return ip=dhcp to the ipconfig use case; if set, then ipconfig will be
run using any interface available, or the BOOTIF if it was set.

* Only source ipv4 config in configure_networking() if it exists.
