slave: fix user switching for consolekit users (4.99 KB, patch)

Description Ray Strode [halfline] 2012-09-21 23:00:00 UTC 
ConsoleKit has code to try to prevent switching to the same session
that the slave is running on.  That code was important when we created
a new throw-away session and slave as part of the user switching process.

These days we connect to the already running slave instead of using a
new one, and that vestigal code gets in the way, breaking user
switching.

This commit removes that harmful code.
