So far as I know, kdbus hasn't been added to the mainline kernel yet... and 
certainly wasn't available for the 3.10.x series that RHEL7 uses... so no, it 
is *NOT* a requirement for systemd because if it were, there wouldn't be any 
systemd-based systems yet.  For more info, see:

kdbus is certainly something the systemd developers want in the kernel and once 
it is there, systemd will be start using it.

Now having said that, I'm NOT trying to claim that the EL6-based 2.6.32.x 
kernel will work on the host node of newer distros like EL7 and Debian 8... 
because to the best of my knowledge, it will not... but I don't think it is 
systemd related.  There is a new mainline kernel release approximately very 3 
months and big changes are fairly common.

TYL,
