[PATCH 0/5] Overhaul the audit filename handling

[Paul Moore]

This is the same patchset that was sent earlier with the RFC prefix,
the only differences are the inclusion of a reviewer and the fact that
I've stripped the RFC prefix.  I'm including this in the audit-next
branch and plan on pushing this to Linus in the next merge window.

For those of you who didn't bother looking at the RFC posting, this
patchset resolves various problems in the way audit handles filenames.
The patches rework the way audit handles filenames, removing a lot of
nasty hacks added recently, and fixing a few bugs that still remain.
Most significant to folks outside of audit, patch 5/5 does away with
the nasty getname()/putname() kludge in favor of a less ugly reference
count approach.
