Can you explain how this fixes 1427623? 1427623 is in winbindd_pam.c.
I would rather fix this in winbindd_pam.c. Coverity is very bad at
understanding NTSTATUS, there is TONS of those defects.

Can you figure out how to tell Coverity that in winbindd_pam.c "info3"
is !=NULL if and only if NT_STATUS_OK(result) is true? This would fix
dozens of defects in one run.

Thanks,

Volker
