[PATCH 2/6] audit: flatten kauditd_thread wait queue code

From: Richard Guy Briggs
Date: Sun Jan 27 2013 - 22:48:04 EST


From: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@xxxxxxxxxx>

The wait queue control code in kauditd_thread() was nested deeper than
necessary. The function has been flattened for better legibility.

This is a code clean up in preparation to add a multicast netlink socket to
kaudit for read-only userspace clients such as systemd, in addition to the
bidirectional audit userspace client.
