[Bug 1417010] Re: Reloading services can result in a deadlock under systemd

I pondered this for a while; quite naturally there is no perfect
solution as synchronous reload/restart requests in hooks which may be
part of a systemd unit transaction are fundamentally against the design
of systemd. But this patch now seems to fix this bug and the three
referenced Debian bugs, and supersedes Avoid-reload-and-re-start-
requests-during-early-boot.patch and Avoid-reloading-services-when-
shutting-down.patch, so I think it's better.

Attaching here so that I don't lose them.
