Subject: [PATCH] Do not report missing utmp record to syslog
If no utmp record can be found there is obviously nobody to read error
message about missing TTY in sytem log in real time. Moreover the log
is usually illegible for normal user. So it's pointless to log this
fact there for user's sake. warnquota can be used instead.
