Summary0001189: 9.1-20221123 GenericCloud image has a misconfigured cloud-init that prevents using yum-repos: keyword in user data
Description- using latest 9.1 generic cloud image (no problem with the other images)
- with a user_data.yaml file that includes a yum-repos: section
- that section is not executed by cloud-init (the specified repositories are not created)

no problem with the other images, like 9.0
Steps To Reproduce- download https://download.rockylinux.org/pub/rocky/9.1/images/x86_64/Rocky-9-GenericCloud.latest.x86_64.qcow2
  (as of today, it is pointing to Rocky-9-GenericCloud-Base-9.1-20221123.0.x86_64.qcow2)
- in the user_data.yaml , add a yum-repos: section as explained in the cloud-init documentation
- deploy a VM using the 9.1 qcow2 and the user-data file
- /etc/yum.repos.d/ will not contain the repository requested in yum-repos: section
Additional InformationThe problem comes from /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg configuration file inside the rocky9 qcow2 image.

This file contains this section:

# The modules that run in the 'config' stage
cloud_config_modules:
 - ssh-import-id
 - keyboard
 - locale
 - set-passwords
 - ntp
 - timezone
 - disable-ec2-metadata
 - runcmd

It lacks module - yum-add-repo in this enumeration (and probably many other modules).
TagsNo tags attached.
