You should CC netdev on this patch; I'd also mention that you are
simply duplicating the normal socketcall() auditing in the compat
version (the only real difference being the argument size handling
workaround).

It will be interesting to see if you get push back on this loop
outside of audit_socketcall(); folks may want to see it wrapped up
inside a audit_socketcall_compat() (or similar) function so it isn't
needlessly called in a number of cases. However, considering it is
compat code, and not the common case it may be okay.
