Oh, so it's explained! Thanks Javier for the data. You're using an outdated version of the package that doesn't contain this fix. You need initramfs-tools version 0.122ubuntu8.17 - you can either try to get an updated cloud image, or after the first boot you may be able to update it (you could disable the console=ttySX entry in the cmdline as a workaround in the 1st boot).
If possible, please try the new version and let us all know how it goes.
