I had to make a little change to systemctl to use a file as a flag when
the system is rebooting. Likely, this a use case that most people would
not be interested in. And it might exist a better way to do it. Anyway,
this is the patch:

Post by Tia, JavierHi,
Is there a way to know inside of systemd if it's in a reboot state?
Something like the Linux kernel does [1], keeping the system state in a
variable.
