Currently walinuxagent checks whether cloud-init is enabled. If yes, it will wait for cloud-init to finish provisioning. Otherwise, it will proceed with provisioning.
Impact
If walinuxagent is install/enabled in the system it will race with azure-init to accomplish provisioning.
Ideal future situation
walinuxagent should not assume provisioning if azure-init is expected to do provisioning.
**Implementation options
We should work with walinuxagent team to determine the best approach here. One option is to override the configuration in /etc/waagent.conf to ask walinuxagent to not provision at all.
