>Description:
When init receives SIGHUP, the state machine's requested_transition is changed to clean_ttys. Lets say SIGTERM is received while we are in clean_ttys, it will set requested_transition to death. But at the end of clean_ttys it will return multi_user directly which then resets requested_transition. So we loose the SIGTERM sent by shutdown
>How-To-Repeat:
Create a big /etc/ttys.
kill -1 1; shutdown -r now
Lot of times the machine will not reboot.
>Fix:
While returning, clean_ttys should check if requested_transition is
no longer clean_ttys and then return requested_transition
instead of multi_user
