[PATCH 0/2] audit: fix soft lockup

From: Luiz Capitulino
Date: Tue Sep 03 2013 - 00:49:05 EST


The second patch fixes a softlockup which is fully described and now is
100% reproducible with simple steps. The first patch fixes a bug I found
while working on the second patch.

Chuck Anderson just posted a different solution for the same problem.
I was about to post this solution when he posted his version, so I'm
posting it anyway.

Luiz capitulino (2):
audit: flush_hold_queue(): don't drop queued SKBs
audit: kaudit_send_skb(): make non-blocking call to netlink_unicast()
