Merge branch 'upstream' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit
Pull audit fixes from Paul Moore:
"Four patches to fix various problems with the audit subsystem, all are
fairly small and straightforward.
One patch fixes a problem where we weren't using the correct gfp
allocation flags (GFP_KERNEL regardless of context, oops), one patch
fixes a problem with old userspace tools (this was broken for a
while), one patch fixes a problem where we weren't recording pathnames
correctly, and one fixes a problem with PID based filters.
In general I don't think there is anything controversial with this
patchset, and it fixes some rather unfortunate bugs; the allocation
flag one can be particularly scary looking for users"
* 'upstream' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:
audit: restore AUDIT_LOGINUID unset ABI
audit: correctly record file names with different path name types
audit: use supplied gfp_mask from audit_buffer in kauditd_send_multicast_skb
audit: don't attempt to lookup PIDs when changing PID filtering audit rules
