This is causing issues booting an Ubuntu yakety cloud image. I'm
running on a ppc64le box (I don't think it reproduces on x86-64).
cat << EOF > my-user-data
#cloud-config
password: password
chpasswd: { expire: False }
ssh_pwauth: True
EOF
cloud-localds my-seed.img my-user-data
wget -N
https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/yakkety/current/yakkety-server-cloudimg-ppc64el.img
qemu-system-ppc64 -M pseries -cpu POWER8 -nographic -vga none -m 4G -drive
file=test.img -drive file=my-seed.img -net user -net nic
The cloud-init scripts never finish, so the ubuntu user's
password is never updated. With the above cloud config you
should be able to log in with ubuntu/password.
