thanks - hopefully there will be soon a fedora update

in the meantime i worked around that issue by remove the 
RuntimeDirectory stuff from all mysql instances and just point the 
pid-file which systemd don't need anyways to /dev/null

MariaDB seems to be happy with that........

[Service]
Type=simple
User=mysql
Group=mysql
ExecStart=/usr/libexec/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf 
--pid-file=/dev/null
ExecStartPost=/usr/libexec/mysqld-wait-ready $MAINPID
