Put the backoff in the finish script. The API is to run finish with the
exit code and signal (if appropriate) as $1 and $2 respectively. With
that information you can have finish make decisions about if it should
delay restarting, set the service down in the face of a permanent error,
or so on. Note that by default finish has a five second deadline so if
you want to delay a restart for ten seconds you'll need to increase that
deadline with a timeout-finish file.
