Subject: core/service: if RefreshOnReload= is explicitly enabled, allow reload even without... 
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=21292677f61505c4b1615241d193a0b2bd1dc8af;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

core/service: if RefreshOnReload= is explicitly enabled, allow reload even without exec/notify-reload

This was originally brought up by @poettering. If the process
loads stuff on demand and flushes them out after each use,
or actively monitors file changes, they can be reloaded
by merely refreshing the resources.
