Re: [PATCH ghak109 V1] audit: link integrity evm_write_xattrs record to syscall event

In commit fa516b66a1bf ("EVM: Allow runtime modification of the set of verified xattrs"), the call to audit_log_start() is missing a context to link it to an audit event. Since this event is in user context, add the process' syscall context to the record. In addition, the orphaned keyword "locked" appears in the record. Normalize this by changing it to "xattr=(locked)".
