This file has:

(define fs-home
  (file-system
   (device "/dev/sda7")
   (title 'device)
   (mount-point "/home")
   (type "ext4")))

… which is correct.

If you previously had 'label instead of 'device here, the file system
could not be found at boot time because GuixSD was searching for a file
system with “/dev/sda7” as its *label*.

See
<https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/File-Systems.html>
for the meaning of ‘title’.

HTH!
