You could try to build. It's really a trivial change, could get away
with code inspection (and some automatic building when it gets to
linux-next).

In init/Kconfig:

config HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL
	bool

and:

-	depends on AUDIT && (X86 || PARISC || PPC || S390 || IA64 || UML || SPARC64 || SUPERH || (ARM && AEABI && !OABI_COMPAT))
+	depends on HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL

In the corresponding arch/*/Kconfig:

	select HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL

> 2) Some architectures (microblaze, mips, openrisc) are not listed here, but

For those, you don't need to select HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL.

They are not NULL but empty inline functions, so they don't have any
effect.

I'm pretty sure it won't ;).
