You are completely right. In my current (v3 prototype) implementation,
"abi" argument, which can be AUDIT_ARCH_ARM(EB) or AUDIT_ARCH_AARCH64(EB),
passed to audit_classify_syscall() is determined per-task using is_compat_thread()
when audit_syscall_entry() is executed in syscall_trace().
(Obviously audit_is_compat() is true only in case of AUDIT_ARCH_ARM.)

V3 based on this patch is working for 32-bit and 64-bit userland.
I can submit v3 patch if you want.

Thanks,
