I'm getting a similar (perhaps/hopefully the same) hang if I do this:
systemctl mask --runtime systemd-journald systemd-logind; systemctl stop systemd-journald systemd-logind
SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug /lib/systemd/systemd-journald # restart 5 times SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug /lib/systemd/systemd-logind # restart a few times
After a few restarts, logind fails to start with the 25s D-Bus timeout and the error message
Failed to add match for NameOwnerChanged: Connection timed out Failed to fully start up daemon: Connection timed out
From then on it keeps failing. This can be reset by kill -9 the system dbus-daemon. systemd will auto-restart it, and then logind can start again.
