Public bug reported:

In the user session lockscreen (gdm login screen is fine):

- Lock the screen
- Hit Enter
- Hit Escape
- Repeat

You'll see by checking watch -n1 "ps aux |grep gdm-session-worker" (or
just ps'ing after unlocked) that many gdm workers are left around and
never terminated.

Fingerprint unlocking is particularly hit by this as the service may
prevent further authentication to happen until the PAM module times out.
