Passing nullptr is fine, see comment on 
https://github.com/linux-pam/linux-pam/blob/master/libpam/pam_data.c#L110

That is a good question, the old code was kind of prepared for it.

I am going to say "no" open can not be called before authenticate, if you read 
https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/008329799/pam_open_session.htm it says

"The pam_open_session() function opens a new session for a user previously 
authenticated with a call to pam_authenticate()."

But my pam knowledge is between none and i googled a little, so I would be 
happy if someone can google a bit more and agree/disagree with me
