Hi Linus,
Seven audit patches for 4.4, but really only one of any significant value, the
remainder are trivial cleanups that are described well enough in the patch
descriptions. The one significant patch is an attempt to make communication
between the kernel's audit subsystem and the userspace audit daemon a bit more
robust by retrying on certain transient error conditions. All in all, it's a
pretty small set of patches this time around with just fixes and cleanups,
please pull for 4.4.
Thanks,
-Paul
