pam and nice-rt-prio-rlimits

[Vegard Lima <Vegard.Lima@hia.no>]

Hello,

in the long thread on "[request for inclusion] Realtime LSM" there
doesn't appear to be too many people who has actually tested the
nice-and-rt-prio-rlimits.patch. Well, it works for me...

However, the patch to pam_limits posted here:
  http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/1/14/174
is a little bit aggressive on the semi-colon side.

Tested patch (and pam.src.rpm for fedora c3) can be found here
  http://home.hia.no/~vegardl/rlimit/
and below
