The second argument "type" is not used in audit_filter_user()
I find the second argument "type" is not used in audit_filter_user(). Is it used later or redundant?
If it is redundant, I think it should be removed.

I find the second argument "type" is not used in
audit_filter_user().
I researched this all the way back to our RHEL4 kernel. This appears to be in every kernel I can find. I don't know what its original purpose is, but it does appear to be unused. Its not on a performance critical path, but should be cleaned up just on the principal of it. Someone should submit a patch deleting this argument.
