Subject: audit: log 32-bit socketcalls

From: Richard Guy Briggs <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 62bc306e2083436675e33b5bdeb6a77907d35971 ]

32-bit socketcalls were not being logged by audit on x86_64 systems. Log them. This is basically a duplicate of the call from net/socket.c:sys_socketcall(), but it addresses the impedance mismatch between 32-bit userspace process and 64-bit kernel audit.

See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/14
