Public bug reported:

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".

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.
