OK. If you are sure that it is safe to use get_task_comm() from
audit_log_task() and you prefer locked version, please pick up below patch
via your git tree.
If you are unsure or prefer lockless version, I'll make a lockless version
using do_get_task_comm() proposed in this thread.

Subject: [PATCH] Audit: Pass comm name via get_task_comm()
When we pass task->comm to audit_log_untrustedstring(), we need to pass
a snapshot of it using get_task_comm(). Otherwise, we will lose fields
after comm= if we raced with updating task->comm.
