[Bug 1042275] Re: dnsmasq updating resolvconf when it's not configured to do DNS

The issue seems to be that with its current configuration (and including
"bind-interfaces", and "except-interface=lo"), dnsmasq tries to update
DNS via resolvconf which adds a file under
/run/resolvconf/interface/lo.dnsmasq.

That file contains 'nameserver 127.0.0.1', which is absolutely incorrect
given the configuration, at least because of except-interface.

This nameserver configuration in resolvconf appears to take precedence
over the NetworkManager provided configuration (nameserver 127.0.1.1)
also running dnsmasq.
