Hmm, I am a bit concerned about failed boots where the param then stays
around, and is still applied to a subsequent attempt, even though not
specified anymore.
I'd thus prefer if we could explicitly unlink the file should no reboot
param be specified. And that should be treated the same for systemctl as
for this code, which means we probably should have a common function for
this in util.c that deletes the file on NULL and creates it if non-NULL,
if you follow what I mean. That function should then simply be used by
both service.c and systemctl.c.

This needs some code to free the string again, in service_done().
