I was going through old email trying to clear my backlog and saw this
one marked for follow up at some point.

This is the function in question:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/kernel/auditsc.c?id=refs/tags/v4.2-rc1#n2357

Actually, I missed the call to audit_log_d_path_exe() because I was looking
for exe= in the logging string ...so its already fixed.

Sorry for the noise.  :-)
