I hope you won't take this the wrong way, but: What specifically are
you talking about?

The first 60% of that paragraph seems to be some sort of odd and rather
elliptical complaint about systemd. The latter 40% appears to be a
comment (one with no obvious segue from the first 60%) about some sort of
bad behaviour by your kernel. Perhaps you wouldn't mind explaining.
And perhaps switching to a more meaningful Subject header, while you're
at it.

(rkhunter throughout its history has had problems with Type I errors
aka false positives, and probably that will remain an ongoing problem.)
