I thought that SSH password logins can benefit from it, but I just
found that it is wrong because it seems that SSH client is responsible
for authenticating. Consequently, supporting SSH here is useless.
I will remove that lines and send this patch again.

Since it is the first time I submit a patch to git, I am not very
familiar with the convention here. Should I send the modified patch
to the maintainer directly? And what information should I append to
my patch before it can get merged?
