An update that has seven fixes can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for systemd fixes the following issues:

  * basic/hashmap: add cleanup of memory pools
  * core: add valgrind helper for daemon-reexec
  * sd-bus: fix a memory leak in message_new_reply()
  * sd-bus: unify three code-paths which free struct bus_container
  * bus-message: use structured initialization to avoid use of unitialized
    memory
  * Add patches (bsc#1231211)
  * Don't try to restart the udev socket units anymore (bsc#1228809) There's
    currently no way to restart a socket activable service and its socket units
    "atomically" and safely.
