** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
  If the daemon is started and the vmbus is not present it will just exit
  with an error: https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mantic/tree/tools/hv/hv_kvp_daemon.c#n1424
  
  Thus, it would make sense to add "ConditionPathExists=/dev/vmbus/hv_kvp"
  in linux-cloud-tools-common.hv-kvp-daemon.service to prevent systemd
  from starting the daemon if the device is not there.
+ 
+ [Test Plan]
+ 
+ Start an Azure cloud instance and check for /dev/vmbus/hv_kvp and that 
hv-kvp-daemon is running.
+ Start a non-Azure cloud instance and check that hv-kvp-daemon is not running.
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ 
+ Its possible that kv-hvp-daemon is not started when it should be.

Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  [Impact]

  If the daemon is started and the vmbus is not present it will just
  exit with an error: https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-
  kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/mantic/tree/tools/hv/hv_kvp_daemon.c#n1424

  Thus, it would make sense to add
  "ConditionPathExists=/dev/vmbus/hv_kvp" in linux-cloud-tools-
  common.hv-kvp-daemon.service to prevent systemd from starting the
  daemon if the device is not there.

  [Test Plan]

  Start an Azure cloud instance and check for /dev/vmbus/hv_kvp and that 
hv-kvp-daemon is running.
  Start a non-Azure cloud instance and check that hv-kvp-daemon is not running.

  
  [Regression potential]

  Its possible that kv-hvp-daemon is not started when it should be.
