devent2dev basically is supposed to turn either a filesystem location ("/home")
or a device into a device that contains that filesystem. Input of '/dev/sda'
should return '/dev/sda'. Input of "/home" should return the device that
/home's filesystem is on (what should be rezied).

Your made a change to resize_devices in cloudinit/config/cc_growpart.py to
take a 'cloud'.

  - resize_devices then calls devent2dev(devent, cloud)
  - devent2dev calls cloud.datasource.get_mount_info(devent)
This change:
- result = util.get_mount_info(devent)
+ result = cloud.datasource.get_mount_info(devent)

I'd have preferred for 'util.get_mount_info' to have code that says:
   if is_FreeBSD:
      # get the device one way
   else:
      # get it for linux.

Instead, since you're going through 'datasource', your fix will only work
on Azure.

OK, thats fine.
