My understanding is that when it is called via:
copy_process()
audit_free()
__audit_free()
audit_log_exit()
audit_log_task_info()
then tsk != current. This appears to be the only case which appears to
force lugging around tsk. This is noted in that commit referenced
above.
In the case where copy_process() ends up calling __audit_free(), the
call to audit_log_exit() is conditional on the audit context
in_syscall field being true and unless I missed something, the copied
process' audit context should not have in_syscall set to true.
