Now as the roll out of Ubuntu 16.04 starts in the industry the new
default setting of net.ifnames=1 will do much harm to the Linux community.

I personally vote for putting net.ifnames=0 into the default kernel
command line to avoid alienating thousands of otherwise happy Linux users!

Please support my case.
