Is "audit_n_rules" a specific enough trigger? Right now, even if there are no
rules configured at all, audit_log_start() while processing a syscall will mark
that syscall for auditing, and all collected information about the syscall will
be logged at syscall exit.
Would the suggested change break this behavior?
