While looking this over one more time before merging I realized that
you are missing the curly braces in the "if (fullpath)" if-statement
above. This is an easy fix, and appears to be the Right Thing, so I'm
just going to fix up the patch while merging; take a look at the
result in the audit/next tree and if you have any objections let me
know so I can back it out.
I'm also only merging this patch right now, patch 2/2 needs to wait
until the corresponding userspace is ready so we can test/verify it.
