Subject: [PATCH 5003/5003] core: when switching root remove /run/systemd
 before executing the binary specified by init=

It's important if the binary specified by the init= boot option is not systemd
otherwise it confuses systemctl that incorrectly assumes that systemd is still
the init system due to the presence of /run/systemd/system.

Also some tools might also check the presence of /run/systemd/private to test
if systemd is running as pid1.

(cherry picked from commit 8c28dd24427598214d4464565192ec3f3b1a74a4)
