This is behavior that wasn't noticed until cloud-init changed to prevent
falling back to a openstacklocal datasource in environments where
config_drive was passed.

Block configurations could never mount the config drive, but they used
to fall back to the other datasource. With the new cloud-init, they
can't do that -- they need to be able to mount the config drive. Thus
the bug.

Title:
  minimal kernel lacks modules for blk disk in arm64 openstack
  environments where config_drive is required

Status in linux-base package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Cloud images using the arm64 minimal kernel cannot detect config drive
  cloud-init datasources in openstack. This seems to be due to openstack
  environments using or emulating a sym53c8xx scsi controller for the
  config drive. This doesn't work for initrd-less boot, as in the case
  of minimal cloud images.

  To reproduce: register and launch an arm64 minimal questing cloud
  image [1] in openstack configured to use a block disk bus and verify
  that cloud init cannot mount the config drive.
