Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix auditsc DoS and move it to staging

CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is awful.  Patch 2 enumerates some reasons.

Patch 1 fixes a nasty DoS and possible information leak.  It should
be applied and backported.

Patch 2 is optional.  I leave it to other peoples' judgment.

Andy Lutomirski (2):
  auditsc: audit_krule mask accesses need bounds checking
  audit: Move CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL into staging and update help text
