Bug description:
  [impact]

  systemd may leak sessions, leaving empty cgroups around as well as
  abandoned session scopes.

  [test case]

  on a system where the user has a ssh key that allows noninteractive
  login to localhost, and also has noninteractive sudo, run:

  $ for i in {1..100}; do sudo -b -i -u ubuntu ssh localhost -- sleep 1;
  done; for i in {1..20}; do echo 'Reloading...'; sudo systemctl daemon-
  reload; done

  check the sessions to see there have been leaked sessions:

  $ loginctl list-sessions

  SESSION  UID USER   SEAT TTY
        1 1000 ubuntu      ttyS0
      350 1000 ubuntu      
      351 1000 ubuntu      
      360 1000 ubuntu      
  ...

  to verify the sessions were leaked, clear them out with:

  $ echo '' | sudo tee
  
/sys/fs/cgroup/unified/user.slice/user-1000.slice/session-*.scope/cgroup.events

  that should result in all the leaked sessions being cleaned up.

  [regression potential]

  issues during systemd pid1 reexec/reload, or issues while cleaning up
  sessions, including leaking sessions/cgroups

  [scope]

  this is needed for all releases

  upstream bug linked above, and upstream PR:
  https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/20199

  [original description]

  On a system that is monitored via telegraf I found many abandoned
  systemd session which I believe are created by a potential race where
  systemd is reloading unit files and at the same time a user is
  connecting to the system via ssh or is executing the su command.

  The simple reproducer

  $ for i in {1..100}; do sleep 0.2; ssh localhost sudo systemctl
  daemon-reload & ssh localhost sleep 1 & done

  Wait > 1 second

  $ jobs -p | xargs --verbose --no-run-if-empty kill -KILL

  To clean out STOPPED jobs and

  $ systemctl status --all 2> /dev/null | grep --before-context 3
  abandoned

  will produce something similar to

             │ ├─  175 su - ubuntu
             │ ├─  178 -su
             │ ├─62375 systemctl status --all
             │ └─62376 grep --color=auto --before-context 3 abandoned
