[PATCH] audit: use supplied gfp_mask from audit_buffer in kauditd_send_multicast_skb
Eric Paris explains: Since kauditd_send_multicast_skb() gets called in
audit_log_end(), which can come from any context (aka even a sleeping context)
GFP_KERNEL can't be used. Since the audit_buffer knows what context it should
use, pass that down and use that.
