Bug description:
  I noticed a battery drain on my mako OTA6 recently.  Looking at the
  Terminal app, initctl was taking 100% CPU.  It wasn't slowing down my
  general experience like bug 1480877 does, because dbus wasn't
  affected.  It was just draining the battery.

  The specific initctl line was:

  initctl emit xsession SESSION=ubuntu-touch SESSIONTYPE=

  It never seemed to die.  Had been running for 669 minutes already.
  Can't find the logs for initctl (where does it put it's output?).
