This is for fido and possibly dizzy, not master.

D-Bus 1.8.16 fixes CVE-2015-0245 "prevent forged ActivationFailure from
non-root processes". This patch does not contain the same fix but a
configuration change that upstream suggests as a easily backportable
fix.

The issue is only a local denial of service so not terribly dangerous,
but should be worth fixing since the patch is not intrusive.

I've only tested this on fido, so the [dizzy] is just a suggestion.

Cheers, Jussi
