When the privsep helper dies, the client side PrivContext now restarts the
client channel and the helper so that privileged commands can continue to
be processed. See `bug 1715374`_ for details. In conjunction with the fix
for `bug 1794708`_ in oslo.service, the nova-compute service now behaves
correctly when it receives ``SIGHUP``.
.. note:: This only works for the ``ROOTWRAP`` method of starting the
daemon. With the ``FORK`` method we've dropped privileges and no
longer have the ability to restart the daemon in privileged mode.
