[RESEND PATCH 2/2] audit: uninitialize variable audit_sig_sid

2020-08-03 Thread Jules Irenge
Checkpatch tool reports

"ERROR: do not initialise globals/statics to 0"

To fix this, audit_sig_sid is uninitialized
As this is stored in the .bss section,
the compiler can initialize the variable automatically.
