Public bug reported:

Under bug 1096999, we added support to util linux 'partx' to update the
partition table information of a disk with a mounted partition. This
takes advantage of kernel feature in 3.8.0.

This actually removes the necessity of cloud-initramfs-growpart.
We can now put that function into growpart and cloud-init instead.  By doing so, we can actually make it able to be disabled from user-data, and not require ramdisk code.
