I did try this patch and I was trying to work out why it didn't
work. But thought I'd let you know what I saw.

Applying it to current Linus tree systemd stops at switch root.

Not sure what causes that, I couldn't see any reason for it.

I see you have a development branch in your repo. I'll have a look
at that rather than continue with this.
