This is a RHEL patch that should really be upstream.

manager: don't try to activate session if session not on seat

If a session is not associated with a seat (because it's remote),
then we shouldn't try to activate the session.  Activating sessions,
really only means anything on seat0 (where it means to change
the active VT).

This prevents premature failure before unlock on XDMCP.
