This simplifies internal_getut_nolock and fixes a regression,
introduced in commit be6b16d975683e6cca57852cd4cfe715b2a9d8b1
("login: Acquire write lock early in pututline [BZ #24882]")
in pututxline because __utmp_equal can only compare process-related
utmp entries.

Fixes: be6b16d975683e6cca57852cd4cfe715b2a9d8b1
Change-Id: Ib8a85002f7f87ee41590846d16d7e52bdb82f5a5
(cherry picked from commit 76a7c103eb9060f9e3ba01d073ae4621a17d8b46)
