Screenlocker: don't set the mouse cursor when grabbing the mouse

Setting the cursor to ArrowCursor when calling XGrabPointer() prevents
the Screen savers from blanking the mouse cursor.
With this change they can blank the mouse cursor again.

Comment 5 Jekyll Wu 2014-01-09 04:02:25 UTC 
There will not be 4.11.6 for KDE SC as a whole.
Comment 6 Wolfgang Bauer 2014-01-14 16:57:15 UTC 
Changed FIXED-IN to 4.12.2, as kde-workspace 4.11.6 is not released yet together with KDE SC 4.12.1, but it will be released on Jan. 4th together with KDE SC 4.12.2.
