    audit: Use current instead of NETLINK_CREDS() in audit_filter · 02276bda
    Eric W. Biederman authored
    Get caller process uid and gid and pid values from the current task
    instead of the NETLINK_CB.  This is simpler than passing NETLINK_CREDS
    from from audit_receive_msg to audit_filter_user_rules and avoid the
    chance of being hit by the occassional bugs in netlink uid/gid
    credential passing.  This is a safe changes because all netlink
    requests are processed in the task of the sending process.
