[ Reason ]
When trying to unlock the screen and entering a wrong password,
it can lead to an endless loop when using the PAM module.
This fix applies a patch from upstream that fixes the
behaviour.
See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1035732
[ Impact ]
The screen cannot be unlocked and log files get flooded.
[ Tests ]
The bug reporter confirmed that the applied patch fixes the
issue.
[ Risks ]
The risks are low. The patch comes directly from upstream and
has been applied to later versions of kscreenlocker.
In addition, only a single line in the code needs to be moved.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
