Bug#928659: systemd: "systemctl reboot <arg>" broken since v240 - fixed in v242

[Serge Schneider]

Package: systemd
Version: 241-3+rpi1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

v240 of systemd broke the mechanism that passes reboot arguments to the kernel.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/11828

I've tested that adding this patch to the current Buster version (241-3) resolves the problem.
https://github.com/vesajaaskelainen/systemd/commit/b4bf7e500b28362c2bf50f0320dc66a55b92cda2.patch

I don't know if the issue is considered critical enough to update the package now that Buster is frozen,
but it would certainly be appreciated.
