[systemd-devel] [PATCH] units/serial-getty at .service: use the default RestartSec

For pluggable ttys such as USB serial devices, the getty is restarted
and exits in a loop until the remove event reaches systemd. Under
certain circumstances the restart loop can overload the system in a
way that prevents the remove event from reaching systemd for a long
time (e.g. at least several minutes on a small embedded system).
Use the default RestartSec to prevent the restart loop from
overloading the system. Serial gettys are interactive units, so
waiting an extra 100ms really doesn't make a difference anyways
compared to the time it takes the user to log in.

I'm not sure why this fails now, but I'm not sure if that was because of
systemd (I used v204 before) or the Kernel.
Either way I think this is a good idea to make things more robust.
