[PATCH] Fix the kernel panic of audit_filter_task when key field is set
When calling audit_filter_task(), it calls audit_filter_rules() with audit_context is
NULL.
If the key field is set, the result in audit_filter_rules() will be set to 1 and
ctx->filterkey will be set to key.
But the ctx is NULL in this condition, so kernel will panic.
