>Description:
sshd blocklistd integration treats every failed key as an authentication failure.  This spuriously blocks legitimate users who just have multiple public keys, e.g. with ssh-agent.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. load multiple public keys into ssh-agent
2. try to log into machine running sshd with blocklistd
>Fix:
ding the connection once if authentication fails at the end, not once per key
