** Description changed:

  During provisioning cloud-init adds an entry for the ephemeral disk in
  /etc/fstab. After provisioning this entry is correct and points to
  "/dev/disk/azure/resource-part1". This symlink is created dynamically by
  66-azure-storage.rules.
  
  For some reason after the first reboot cloud-init overwrites the fstab
  entry and changes the "/dev/disk/azure/resource-part1" to the device
  name that it points to, i.e. /dev/sdb1.  However, this is incorrect
  since /dev/sd* device names are not persistent.
  
- 
  Repro:
  
  1) Provision an Ubuntu VM on Azure (I tested with 14.04.4)
  2) The fstab entry for the ephemeral disk (/mnt) correctly points to 
"/dev/disk/azure/resource-part1".
  3) Reboot the VM (sudo reboot)
  4) The fstab entry now incorrectly points to /dev/sdb1 instead of the symlink.
  
  Impact:
  There is a chance that the customer's ephemeral disk will not be mounted 
properly if the device names change after a reboot.
