Public bug reported:

Systemd >= 240 sets a clamp for RLIMIT_MEMLOCK, which is too low for
some realistic applications.  This clamp should probably be increased.
This breaks a number of current jackd setups, for example.

See upstream bug: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13331.

This occurs on at Ubuntu Disco and newer, Disco being the first release
to ship with systemd >= 240.

** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu)
