Title:
  systemd-modules-load.service: Failing due to missing module 'ib_iser'

Status in open-iscsi package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On a number of VMs using Xenial daily builds 20160330 and 20160403,
  out of the box (just after booting for the first time), the following
  appears in dmesg at boot time:

  systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
  systemd[1]: Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
  systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: Unit entered failed state.
  systemd[1]: systemd-modules-load.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.

  The following related complaint appears in /var/log/syslog:

  ubuntu systemd-modules-load[352]: Inserted module 'iscsi_tcp'
  ubuntu systemd-modules-load[352]: Failed to find module 'ib_iser'

  It looks like 'ib_iser' is some Mellanox-related module, which I don't
  *think* is something that a stock cloudimg install should attempt to
  load but I may be wrong; in any case, it's not present (nor is there
  any similar whingeing) on similar VMs running off 14.04 cloudimg.
