Subject: [GIT PULL] Audit fixes for v4.11 (#3)

Hi Linus,

One more small audit fix, this should be the last for v4.11.  Seth
Forshee noticed a problem where the audit retry queue wasn't being
flushed properly when audit was enabled and the audit daemon wasn't
running; this patches fixes the problem (see the commit description
for more details on the change).  Both Seth and I have tested this and
everything looks good.  Please merge.

Thanks,
-Paul
