Sure.
It turns out I don't need this function anymore, so this patch is removed.

I believe that was a copy & paste from some other sysdb function, you
are probably right that it can be safely removed.
Done.

ldb complains when the same value is present more than once in a single
attribute (such as name) and refuses to store the entry.
I have taken a slightly different approach here: instead of deleting
unwanted attributed in sysdb functions, I copy only host keys from the
LDAP result in hostid provider (the rest of attributes is not
interesting from SSH perspective anyway).

Added a new configuration option ssh_known_hosts_timeout, which can be
used to specify the timeout of known_hosts entries in seconds. Also
added a sysdb upgrade routine so that this patch works for existing
installs as well.
