Description Arvid Requate

Samba frequently logs these trivial progress messages into /var/log/samba/log.samba-dcerpcd :

[2023/02/06 11:20:06.179200,  1, pid=18635] ../../source3/rpc_server/rpc_host.c:1353(rpc_host_distribute_clients)
  rpc_host_distribute_clients: Sending new client /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/rpcd_spoolss to 28012 with 0 clients

[2023/02/06 11:20:21.531742,  1, pid=18635] ../../source3/rpc_server/rpc_host.c:1353(rpc_host_distribute_clients)
  rpc_host_distribute_clients: Sending new client /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/rpcd_winreg to 8436 with 0 clients

We should increase the minimum log level of that message to 2 or higher.
I guess we could even attempt to upstream that patch.
