[Bug 1254120] [NEW] Bonded interfaces don't come down with a ifdown -a

[Bryan Quigley]

Public bug reported:

1) 12.04.3
2) 1.1.0_19ubuntu5
3) a. Set up new interfaces config with a simple bonded config (you don't need eth0):
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
        bond-master bond0
 bond-primary eth1

auto eth2
iface eth2 inet manual
        bond-master bond0

auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
        address 192.168.122.99
 gateway 192.168.122.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0
 bond-mode active-backup
 bond-miimon 100
 bond-slaves none

b.  Restart the machine to bring up in a known state (wait an extra few minutes to make sure the interfaces aren't still waiting)
c.  Note what interfaces come up correctly via ifconfig 
d.  Run ifdown -a.  This should bring down all interfaces....

4) Ifdown -a doesn't bring down bond0
