Subject: [GIT PULL] Audit patches for v5.17

Linus,

Four audit patches for v5.17:

- Hardened the code through additional use of the struct_size() macro
and zero-length arrays to flexible-array conversions.
- Ensure that processes which generate userspace audit records are not
exempt from the kernel's audit throttling when the audit queues are
being overrun.

Please merge.

-Paul
