Why do you need this change?

pcscd is no more started as a root daemon on startup. The process is
auto-started when needed. See [1].
The init script contains an "exit 0" so unless you comment this line
the script will not do of any start/stop/status command. I guess you
have not really tested your patch :-)

The plan is to completely remove this init script and use systemd
instead. But this migration is not yet ready.
