CONTRIB: PSST-67 GCE support added to block::setup_ephemeral #146

Added support for missing GCE support for ephemeral storage.

lopaka commented 11 years ago

We had a story on our sprint to correctly use ephemeral devices after volumes were supported. We also needed to put into the code google's update on using 'scratch' disks (https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/disks):

For scratch disks, use the alias /dev/disk/by-id/google-ephemeral-disk-*

We also do not use ext4 yet in our STs - we've had issues using it in the past.

As a result of these tasks, ephemeral support has already been worked on and will be availble on our v13.4 STs. The code is currently in the release13.04 branch.

Since these items have already been developed, we will not need to merge your code. Thanks for contributing.
