[Scott Moser <ssmoser2+ubuntu@xxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge ~adobrawy/cloud-init:swap-linux into cloud-init:master has been updated.

Commit message changed to:

Do not use fallocate in swap file creation on xfs.

When creating a swap file on an xfs filesystem, fallocate cannot be used.
Doing so results in failure of swapon and a message like:
 swapon: swapfile has holes

The solution here is to maintain a list (currently containing only XFS)
of filesystems where fallocate cannot be used.  The, on those fileystems
use the slower but functional 'dd' method.
