[PATCH 2/2] audit: log binding and unbinding to netlink multicast
Log information about programs connecting and disconnecting to the audit
netlink multicast socket. This is needed so that during investigations a
security officer can tell who or what had access to the audit trail. This
helps to meet the FAU_SAR.2 requirement for Common Criteria.
