[PATCH] x86-64: replace left over sti/cli in ia32 audit exitcode

From: Jan Beulich
Date: Wed Jan 30 2013 - 03:18:51 EST


For some reason they didn't get replaced so far by their paravirt
equivalents, resulting in code to be run with interrupts disabled that
doesn't expect so (causing, in the observed case, a BUG_ON() to
trigger) when syscall auditing is enabled.

David (Cc-ed) came up with an identical fix, so likely this can be
taken to count as an ack from him.
