Subject: [PATCH 16/20] audit: allow GET,SET,USER MSG operations in audit namespace

1, remove the permission check of pid namespace. it's no reason
   to deny un-init pid namespace to operate audit subsystem.

2, only allow init user namespace and init audit namespace to
   operate list/add/del rule, tty set, trim, make equiv operations.

3, allow audit namespace to get/set audit configuration, send
   userspace audit message.
