Discussed further on IRC. It's not quite clear how this could happen, but killing and respawning logind after the upgrade before rebooting is definitively broken (the upgrade doesn't do it by default, but it might have happened somehow). We resolved to triggering a reboot notification when upgrading from < 204.
