Dear Maintainer,

* What led up to the situation?
A systemd service unit "test" has SyslogFacility=local0 set. Service is 
running and logging lines.
Log lines have SYSLOG_FACILITY=16 when observed with journalctl -o verbose.
Restart journald. After restart of journald, log lines have no more 
SYSLOG_FACILITY=16.
To restore SYSLOG_FACILITY=16 in journal logs, one has to restart service unit 
"test".

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
  ineffective)?
systemctl restart systemd-journald.service

* What was the outcome of this action?
journald did not record the SyslogFacility set in the service unit file.

* What outcome did you expect instead?
journald should continue recording SyslogFacility set in the service unit 
file without needing to restart the service having the SyslogFacility set.



The Debian package doesn't ship any patches in that regard, thus this 
issue should be raised upstream.


For that, please try to reproduce the issue first with a recent version 
of systemd (say v254 or v255) and if it's reproducible, report it at

https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues
and then report back with the issue number.

Thanks,
Michael
