audit: do not needlessly take a lock in tty_audit_exit
We were doing spin_lock_irq and spin_unlock_irq. This is STOOPID. If we were in interupt context we were already screwed and called panic() in do_exit(). So the irq stuff is useless. Also, these values can only be changed by receiving a netlink message from current. Since we are in do_exit() clearly we aren't in the syscall sending the netlink message to change these values. Thus, just read them and go with it. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
