Title:
  Using sysctl to permanently disable IPv6 doesn't have any effect

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Shows up in version 18.04 of Ubuntu.

  I added the following 2 lines in /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf and 
/etc/sysctl.d/01-disable-ipv6.conf:
  ```
  net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
  net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
  ```

  Rebooting my machine sets those parameters for "all" and "default" but not for
  the sysctl options of my network interface:
  ```
  net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
  net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
  net.ipv6.conf.ens160.disable_ipv6 = 0
  ```

  I use disable_ipv6 above as an example.
  I've also verified this with the promote_secondaries option of ipv4.

  I can always restart  systemd-sysctl.service at every boot and this will
  set net.ipv6.conf.ens160.disable_ipv6 to 1. Unfortunately though this won't
  work for devices that are hot-plugged.

  Other info:

  - version signature: Ubuntu 4.15.0-20.21-generic 4.15.17
  - lspci is attached
