Subject: [PATCH 0/2] audit: fix soft lockup

The second patch fixes a softlockup which is fully described and now is
100% reproducible with simple steps. The first patch fixes a bug I found
while working on the second patch.

Chuck Anderson just posted a different solution for the same problem.
I was about to post this solution when he posted his version, so I'm
posting it anyway.

Luiz capitulino (2):
  audit: flush_hold_queue(): don't drop queued SKBs
  audit: kaudit_send_skb(): make non-blocking call to netlink_unicast()
