Resolution to issue #1 was a bit too aggressive on closer inpsection. With it we introduced behavior where any open file descriptor listed by an lsof command would trigger a system reboot. This would frequently include file descriptors for memory-backed anonymous files in /memfd and shared memory objects in /dev/shm which weren't our concern in #1. We care about binaries such as dockerd and zabbix_agent2 still running in old versions via open file descriptors.

Let's reduce the list of lsof results: As a good enough approximation we can begin caring only about file descriptors that point to a path that includes string /s?bin/ where s? is supposed to mean an optional character s. This will cover /usr/sbin/, /usr/local/bin/ etc. and should get us most of the way there for what the intent behind #1 was.
