I think I found the reason of the problem. /etc/tor/torrc permisson changed to 640 root:root and 
after 'killall -SIGHUP tor' Tor cannot read the config. Log message is:

===
[notice] Received reload signal (hup). Reloading config and resetting internal
state.
[warn] Could not open "/etc/tor/torrc": Permission denied
[notice] Configuration file "/etc/tor/torrc" not present, using reasonable defaults.
===

"Reasonable defaults" not include options for transparent torification.

I found that previous version use 644 root:root permission. 
I not use any secret parameters in config and change the permission to old value and everything
work's fine again with -SIGHUP
