After a restart of the server (or after deactivating and re-enabling the plugin), I get massive error log spam:

It looks like this is logged for every single Mattermost user who has a client connected to Mattermost and no Github account linked.
While logging an error when you try to perform an action that requires a linked GitHub account makes perfect sense, it seems strange that what I assume is merely checking whether the user has a GitHub account linked results in such log messages.
It looks like this error log message is triggered whenever a request to /plugins/github/api/v1/connected?reminder=true is sent. Maybe other requests trigger it as well, but I could confirm that simply reloading the Mattermost webapp from a user that has no GitHub connection is enough to trigger this log message.
