Subject: [PATCH] pam-arch: Drop pam_faillock counting from fingerprint and
 smartcard

As mentioned in an [fprintd issue comment][1], we need to make sure that
the stack's error status is taken from the main auth module, i.e.
pam_fprintd, otherwise GDM will not behave correctly.

Still use pam_faillock preauth so that we test whether the account is
locked, but don't use authfail/authsucc to log a failure/success so this
stack doesn't participate in triggering the lock.

Ideally we would check which return values we actually want to treat as
a reason to lock the account (e.g. fingerprint mismatch) and which are
neutral (e.g. no fingerprints enrolled), but that's much more effort.

Should fix [FS#71750][2].
