Re: [PATCH] Fix acct quoting in audit_log_acct_message())

Hello,
audit_log_acct_message() is currently quoting acct differently from all
other users: it adds quotes to acct if it is represented in hexadecimal,
not when it is represented as-is.
This isn't the only audit hexadecimal parsing issue, there are many
more, see my previous posts. It is a sad fact audit output is impossible
to parse correctly given only the output. Correct parsing of audit data
demands private knowledge about the format of audit log messages on a
per kernel version basis, this is very broken IMHO.
