Title:
  Please backport "fix race between daemon-reload and other commands
  #8803" to 16.04 (for UC16) and 18.04 (for UC18)

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in systemd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in systemd source package in Bionic:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  On Ubuntu Core we recently hit the a race in daemon-reload and systemctl 
twice. This race is fixed in systemd upstream: "fix race between daemon-reload 
and other commands #8803" and a subsequent fix in "PR#11121".

  Note that this is a general problem in systemd with daemon-reload and
  systemctl commands, we just happen to hit it more often on Ubuntu Core
  but the test-case below explodes just fine on a normal Ubuntu release
  like 16.04 or 18.04 (not on 18.10+ as its fixed there).

  [TEST CASE]
  To reproduce its enough to run:

  for i in $(seq 50); do
    systemctl daemon-reload &
    systemctl start ssh &
  done

  This will result in "systemctl start ssh" hanging in ppoll. With the
  patch applied the hangs go away.

  [REGRESSION POTENTIAL]
  Medium/High, this change is already in the systemd upstream and in use disco 
and later but the backport required some manual resolving of conflicts the code 
because changed between 229,237 and the fixed code in 240. Its also
  not fully clear if the fix relies on the new systemd "coldplug" functionality 
that was added in more recent git revisions.

  The upstream fix is https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/8803 and
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/11121
