Why don't you also transform the zero-length array in struct
audit_rule_data into a flexible-array member:

508 struct audit_rule_data {
509 __u32 flags; /* AUDIT_PER_{TASK,CALL}, AUDIT_PREPEND */
510 __u32 action; /* AUDIT_NEVER, AUDIT_POSSIBLE, AUDIT_ALWAYS */
511 __u32 field_count;
512 __u32 mask[AUDIT_BITMASK_SIZE]; /* syscall(s) affected */
513 __u32 fields[AUDIT_MAX_FIELDS];
514 __u32 values[AUDIT_MAX_FIELDS];
515 __u32 fieldflags[AUDIT_MAX_FIELDS];
516 __u32 buflen; /* total length of string fields */
517 char buf[0]; /* string fields buffer */
518 };

Thanks

thank you, I will add it in the v2 patch.
if (unlikely(!data))
return NULL;
memset(data, 0, sizeof(*data));
