policycoreutils-restorecond-2.1.14-88.el7.x86_64
policycoreutils-devel-2.1.14-88.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
# ps -efZ | grep restorecon
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 15977 2470  0 16:41 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto restorecon
# service restorecond start
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start  restorecond.service
# service restorecond restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart  restorecond.service
# service restorecond restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart  restorecond.service
# service restorecond restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart  restorecond.service
# service restorecond restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart  restorecond.service
# ps -efZ | grep restorecon
system_u:system_r:restorecond_t:s0 root  15991     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/restorecond
system_u:system_r:restorecond_t:s0 root  16005     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/restorecond
system_u:system_r:restorecond_t:s0 root  16019     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/restorecond
system_u:system_r:restorecond_t:s0 root  16033     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/restorecond
system_u:system_r:restorecond_t:s0 root  16047     1  0 16:41 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/restorecond
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 root 16049 2470  0 16:41 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto restorecon
#

Actual results:
 * each restart increases the number of running restorecond instances by 1

Expected results:
 * restart of restorecond service stops the existing instance and starts a new one
