[PATCH] Enable splitting the logs to both auditd and kernel simultaneously

This came from an internal application and usecase at Samsung for our
mobile products. We don't have all these daemons in userspace, and
splitting coppying, and re-writing is a bit inefficient. Also,
suppose the case where different userspaces have different things that make
use of the netlink socket. They all would need to know that they need to
write the data back to kmsg.
