Hi William (Bill?),

Your patch doesn't apply to my tree for a couple of reasons.  The
funciton audit_log_task_info() was moved from kernel/auditsc.c to
kernel/audit.c in commit b24a30a7 included in v3.10-rc1.  We're up to
v3.12-rc6.

Please rebase, follow standard kernel coding style (or use a mailer that
won't mangle your patch), re-test and re-send.  I use "git format-patch"
and "git send-email".  Thanks!
