This is for identifying the filesystem that contains cloud-init metadata
at its root. Traditionally, cloud-init has used 'cidata' for this label.
Not using 'cidata' was recently deprecated because cloud-init's
generator only looks for the 'cidata' label. This can result in the
generator failing to identify the NoCloud source even if the custom
'fs_label' is used.
> we would need to rename the boot partition
Are you saying that your boot partition has cloud-init metadata at its
root? That's...unexpected.
The reason for the deprecation is that the use case was only partially
supported and we didn't see a use case for adding full support. If we
could understand the use case (and it's not trivial to use a 'cidata' fs
label instead), we may be able to add better support for it in the
future.
