newer ifupdown versions (those in xenial) now keep interface state in /run/network/ifstate.<interfacename> rather than combined in /run/network/ifstate .

We need to update /lib/open-iscsi/net-interface-handler to write the interface name into /run/network/ifstate.<interfacename> and then also tear that down on down.

The failure can be seen when booting a maas image, if you first move the included symlink out of the way:
p="/etc/network/interfaces";
 [ -e "$p.link" -o -L "$p.link" ] || mv "$p" "$p.link"; cp "$p.dist" "$p"

(maas images ship with /etc/network/interfaces as a symlink to ../../run/network/dynamic-interfaces
and /run/network/dynamic-interfaces is populated by cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf).
