Re: [PATCH 11/15] fixing audit rule ordering mess, part 1

Problem: ordering between the rules on exit chain is currently lost; all watch and inode rules are listed after everything else _and_ exit,never on one kind doesn't stop exit,always on another from being matched. Solution: assign priorities to rules, keep track of the current highest-priority matching rule and its result (always/never). Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro(a)zeniv.linux.org.uk&gt;
