                  The module will never return PAM_SUCCESS status for the user.
                  It will return PAM_IGNORE if SELinux is in the enforcing mode,
                  and PAM_AUTH_ERR otherwise. It is useful if you want to support
                  passwordless guest users and other confined users with passwords
                  simultaneously.
