Subject: [GIT PULL] Audit patches for v6.2

Hi Linus,

Two performance oriented patches for the audit subsystem: one
consolidates similar code to gain some caching advantages, while the
other stores a value in a stack variable to avoid repeated lookups in
a loop.  The commit descriptions have more information, including some
before/after performance measurements.  Please merge for v6.2.

-Paul
