That's misleading. This is not what happens. Instead, PID 1's parent
(i.e. the container manager) will be notified about reboot() being
called inside the container by a waitid() event of the container's PID
1, where the exit cause is reported to be an uncaught SIGHUP.

It's quite hacky to report it that way, since there's no way to
distuingish a real SIGHUP exit from a reboot() exit this way, but it's
how the the kernel decided to do it.

Or in other words: SIGHUP on the container's PID 1 is how the reboot()
is *reported*, not what actually happened.
