audit: Embed key into chunk

Currently chunk hash key (which is in fact pointer to the inode) is
derived as chunk->mark.conn->obj. It is tricky to make this dereference
reliable for hash table lookups only under RCU as mark can get detached
from the connector and connector gets freed independently of the
running lookup. Thus there is a possible use after free / NULL ptr
dereference issue:

CPU1					CPU2
					untag_chunk()
					  ...
audit_tree_lookup()
  list_for_each_entry_rcu(p, list, hash) {
					  list_del_rcu(&chunk->hash);
					  fsnotify_destroy_mark(entry);
					  fsnotify_put_mark(entry)
    chunk_to_key(p)
      if (!chunk->mark.connector)
					    ...
					    hlist_del_init_rcu(&mark->obj_list);
					    if (hlist_empty(&conn->list)) {
					      inode = fsnotify_detach_connector_from_object(conn);
					    mark->connector = NULL;
					    ...
					    frees connector from workqueue
      chunk->mark.connector->obj

This race is probably impossible to hit in practice as the race window
on CPU1 is very narrow and CPU2 has a lot of code to execute. Still it's
better to have this fixed. Since the inode the chunk is attached to is
constant during chunk's lifetime it is easy to cache the key in the
chunk itself and thus avoid these issues.
