Hi Linus,
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. Please pull for the next v3.19-rcX.
Thanks,
-Paul
