Dag-Erling Smørgrav 9201dc40bf Change the order in which pam_sm_open_session() updates the logs. This
doesn't really make any difference, except it matches wtmp(5) better.

Don't do anything in pam_sm_close_session(); init(8) will take care of
utmp and wtmp when the tty is released.  Clearing them here would make it
possible to create a ghost session by logging in, running 'login -f $USER'
and exiting the subshell.
