      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      Sosreport -o login --clean  command takes 2  hours to obfuscate output files `lastlog` and `lastlog_-u_65537-4294967295`
      The system has 31K+ users with UUID 65537 onwards.

      What is the impact of this issue to you?

      Complete obfuscation of Sosreport hangs and can not be collected.

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1.  Have large number of users locally in system so as to have 31K lines listed by lastlog command 
      2.  Run command `# sosreport --clean`.

      Expected results

      The command should complete after some time.

      Actual results
