    xfrm: Remove useless secid field from xfrm_audit. · f1370cc4
    Tetsuo Handa authored
    It seems to me that commit ab5f5e8b
    
     "[XFRM]: xfrm audit calls" is doing
    something strange at xfrm_audit_helper_usrinfo().
    If secid != 0 && security_secid_to_secctx(secid) != 0, the caller calls
    audit_log_task_context() which basically does
    secid != 0 && security_secid_to_secctx(secid) == 0 case
    except that secid is obtained from current thread's context.
    
    Oh, what happens if secid passed to xfrm_audit_helper_usrinfo() was
    obtained from other thread's context? It might audit current thread's
    context rather than other thread's context if security_secid_to_secctx()
    in xfrm_audit_helper_usrinfo() failed for some reason.
    
    Then, are all the caller of xfrm_audit_helper_usrinfo() passing either
    secid obtained from current thread's context or secid == 0?
    It seems to me that they are.
    
    If I didn't miss something, we don't need to pass secid to
    xfrm_audit_helper_usrinfo() because audit_log_task_context() will
    obtain secid from current thread's context.
