Subject: [PATCH] audit: remove stray newlines from audit_log_lost messages

Calling audit_log_lost with a \n in the format string leads to extra
newlines in dmesg.  That function will eventually call audit_panic which
uses pr_err with an explicit \n included.  Just make these calls match the
others that lack \n.
