    Description:

    This update for systemd provides the following fixes:

    - Support "locally administered" MAC address in persistent rules.
    (bsc#921831)
    - Avoid confusing warning messages. (bsc#928265)
    - Allow more concurrent connections to dbus. (bsc#920195)
    - Amend patch to fix stack overwrite when using struct rand_pool_info.
    (bsc#926169)
    - Adds kernel commandline options 'mount.timeout' and 'rd.timeout' for
    allowing to modify the default device timeout. (bsc#909358)
    - Correct systemd-sleep-grub return code. (bsc#919095)
    - Fix systemd --test option. (bsc#921920)
    - Fix a race condition where systemd could unmount devices known by sysfs
    but not by udev. (bsc#921898)
    - Add examples of how to allow units to be enabled and how to overwrite
    vendor settings to the systemd.unit man page. (bsc#927457)
    - Return an error code if "systemctl status" fails. (bsc#931388)
    - Don't drop bus_name_good and cgroup_realized on daemon-reload.
    (bsc#933365, bsc#934077)
    - Respect DefaultTimeoutStopSec in systemd unit files. (bsc#933512)
    - DBUS serialization has been made more stable.
    - Let bus connection survive a daemon reload as well as let services track
    clients which reference certain objects they maintain. This solve the
    problem that e.g. the sd-pam processes become not closed together with
    closing an ssh connection after a daemon reload.
    - Ensure processes started using su(1) by sysv scripts are not stopped
    early on shutdown. (bsc#906900, bsc#932284)
