[PATCH] audit: allow not equal op for audit by executable

Current implementation of auditing by executable name only implements
the 'equal' operator. This patch extends it to also support the 'not
equal' operator.

See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/53

Hi Paul,

this turned out to be easier than I anticipated so I'm sending the patch
already :) I hope I got everything right. Note that the userspace tools
also need to be updated to check the feature bit and allow/disallow the
operator based on that.

Ondrej
