Bug Description

currently cloud-init invokes 'apt-get upgrade' if its told to upgrade the system.

The place where this would most likely be seen is if you had:
 apt_upgrade: true

and there is a kernel upgrade, you'll not get the new kernel.

Thats both a plus and a minus as you wont get the new kernel installed, but your reboot will boot the kernel that is known to boot.

  * New upstream snapshot.
    * make apt-get invoke 'dist-upgrade' rather than 'upgrade' for
      package_upgrade. (LP: #1164147)
    * workaround 2.6 kernel issue that stopped blkid from showing /dev/sr0
