FWIW, the reason this patch was never applied/forwarded before was because
I'm not convinced it's necessary; it's trivial to preload user entries into
the smbpasswd database with disabled passwords if that's what the admin
wants, without any requirement to modify pam_smbpass in this manner, and
it's arguably less error-prone to do so, at which point pam_smbpass does
what's expected without any further modifications.
