Title:
  systemd forcibly disables use of dummy/bond interfaces

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  /etc/modprobe.d/local-dummy.conf contains:
  options dummy numdummies=10

  /etc/modules-load.d/local-dummy.conf contains:
  dummy

  /lib/modprobe.d/systemd.conf contains:
  options bonding max_bonds=0
  options dummy numdummies=0

  On boot, the "dummy" module is loaded with the options "numdummies=10
  numdummies=0" because configuration in /lib/modprobe.d/ overrides
  configuration in /etc/modprobe.d/.

  This makes it impossible to automatically load the dummy module with
  10 interfaces and then use them in /etc/network/interfaces.d/ because
  the configuration file provided with systemd overrides my module
  configuration by setting the number of interfaces back to 0.
