blkid output was above. and as I said in my first comment the entry in
/etc/fstab is wrong.
there is no LABEL=METADATA device. So 'mount' *should* fail, but I would have
expected it to exit non-zero.
I noticed just now that '/etc/fstab' has 'nofail' for that line. I
removed that, and it fails as you show and as expected. So the issue
here is really just 2 things
a.) the Canonical provided image has a bogus and confusing entry in /etc/fstab
b.) mount really should not exit '0' when explicitly asked to mount something
even if it has 'nofail'.
heres the info you asked for:
$ mount -l -vvv /var/lib/cloud/seed/config_drive; echo $?
0
