Likely discussed in this thread (in Russian):

http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2017-November/060604.html

TL;DR: the "systemd: PID file ... not readable (yet?) after start"
messages are harmless and can be safely ignored.  Some patches can 
be seen here:

http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-ru/2017-November/060628.html
http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-devel/2017-November/010658.html

Both rejected.
