I merged this as I think it did improve things but adding a test change
to poky to enable it hasn't quite worked as I hoped.

I had to put a constraint around the test to ensure it only runs on
systemd images:

https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?h=master-next&id=9c069e00a0867de11a6069b99a07d2c775848c10

and with that applied I then had this failure:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/101/builds/7000/steps/14/logs/stdio

I can queue the first patch but I'm not sure about the failure above.
Any ideas?

Cheers,

Richard
