[PATCH] audit: no leading space in audit_log_d_path prefix

From: Kees Cook
Date: Fri Jan 06 2012 - 17:14:07 EST


audit_log_d_path() injects an additional space before the prefix,
which serves no purpose and doesn't mix well with other audit_log*()
functions that do not sneak extra characters into the log.
