The benefit is in kernel boot time, so by the time cloud-init has
started, it will be too late to benefit the first boot. If such a
benefit is even wanted (given the compatibility concerns previously
cited), I suspect that the initial proposal of making this part of image
build would make more sens

I think this is by far not the common case -- the vast majority of cloud
instances in the world will only ever run on one guest ("cattle, not
pets"). So for this corn
fwiw, a virtual guest (such as cloud image) will only have -virtual
kernel, which means loads less modules in the initramfs.
in the bug summary you stated:
"this is not relevant for virtual environments like QEMU or Hyper-V, so we can
remove all these unused drivers from the initrd there."
That
Oh, I see what you mean. Right, this should not already be in the cloud
images, but in cloud-init to configure the actual instance appropriate.

Configure option might be ambiguous. What I meant was being part of the process
that sets up an individual guest after it has been cloned of the common
cloud-image.
The worry I would have is that the cloud-images themselves are created as some
kind of VM which would change the modules option alr
Not a big fan of a configure option, I must say. Adding the MODULES=dep
if "systemd-detect-virt --vm" sounds more appropriate to me.

I would probably rather make it an easy configurable cloud-init option
to keep the cloud-images generic until being configured for a specific
guest or machine.
