is understood as raw RLIMIT_NICE limit.
+ * Note that the effect of the PrivateDevices= unit file setting changed
+ slightly with this release: the per-device /dev file system will be
+ mounted read-only from this version on, and will have "noexec"

+ legacy software to break, when PrivateDevices=yes is set for its
+ service. Please leave PrivateDevices= off if you run into problems
+ with this.
