This bug was fixed in the package cloud-initramfs-tools - 0.27ubuntu1
---------------
cloud-initramfs-tools (0.27ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium
* cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf: bring up networking if ip is on kernel
command line and it has not been brought up (LP: #1463846)
* cloud-initramfs-copymods: do not warn to console if /lib/modules
exists in the target, as that is an expected case.

Title:
if ip is specified on cmdline, networking should be brought up in
initramfs
Status in cloud-initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
if the initramfs has 'ip=' on the cmdline, it is arguable that we
should bring the respective interface up as indicated.
Currently, initramfs only does this if something thinks it should.
Ie, open-iscsi might do it, or some other things might call
'configure_networking'.
But it seems reasonable that if the user put 'ip=' on the cmdline then they
wanted that to happen in initramfs.
Additionally, one feature i'd like to have (admittedly for debug
purposes) is the ability to write the /run/initramfs/open-
iscsi.interface file that is used at least by open-iscsi to say "do
not bring this interface down".
I've done this before, the code to do it is available in intramfs-tools style
module at
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~smoser/maas/maas-pkg-test/files/head:/ephemtest-vivid/initrd-updates/
generically, it seems like it'd be nice to have a way to have the same
functionality that open-iscsi.interface accomplishes but not tied to
open-iscsi. Ie, the user may for any reason want to keep a network
from getting re-configured by normal OS bringup. I used
'/run/network/initramfs-persistent-iface' file to do that.
that is explicitly to patch over an existing initramfs (no 'hooks'
directory).
