[PATCH] detangle audit.h from fs.h

Currently touching audit.h triggers a large rebuild because it's sucked
in via fs.h.  It's there because of the getname()/putname() requirements
that come with CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL.  Remove header dependency by pushing
relevant putname() implementation into fs/namei.c.  It adds function
call overhead for putname() callers when CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL is set,
quite minor cost for detangled source.  Any objections?
