Title:
  journal is broken in unprivileged LXC and nspawn containers

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in systemd source package in Vivid:
  Confirmed
Status in systemd source package in Wily:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Test case
  -------------
  - Under Ubuntu 15.04 (or 15.10), set up an unprivileged container as in https://www.stgraber.org/2014/01/17/lxc-1-0-unprivileged-containers/
  - Boot it. You'll get a lot of errors like

    [FAILED] Failed to start Journal Service.
    systemd-journald-audit.socket failed to listen on sockets: Operation not permitted
    [FAILED] Failed to listen on Journal Audit Socket.

  - The same happens with systemd-nspawn -b.

  As a result, the journal isn't working at all.

  With a fixed systemd package, systemd in the container should realize
  that it cannot listen to the audit socket (as the kernel doesn't allow
  that -- the audit subsystem isn't fit for namespaces right now), and
  "sudo journalctl" should show the journal and systemd-journald.service
  should be running.
