[PATCH ALT5] audit: ignore module syscalls on inode child

[Richard Guy Briggs]

Tracefs or debugfs were causing hundreds to thousands of null PATH
records to be associated with the init_module and finit_module SYSCALL
records on a few modules when the following rule was in place for
startup:
        -a always,exit -F arch=x86_64 -S init_module -F key=mod-load

In __audit_inode_child, return immedialy upon detecting module-related
syscalls.

See https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/8
Test case: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-testsuite/issues/42
