Subject: [GIT PULL] Audit fixes for 3.18

Hi Linus,

After he sent the initial audit pull request for 3.18, Eric asked me to take 
over the management of the audit tree, hence this pull request to fix a couple 
of problems with audit.  As you can see below, the changes are minimal: adding 
some whitespace to a string so userspace parses it correctly, and fixing a 
problem with audit's usage of fsnotify that was causing audit watch rules to 
be lost.  Neither of these patches were very controversial on the mailing 
lists and they fix real problems, getting them into 3.18 would be a good 
thing.

As of about ten minutes ago, the audit tree applied cleanly on top of your 
tree.

Thanks,
-Paul
