Generic audit code also support compat system calls now.
This patch adds a small piece of architecture dependent code.

You can call is_compat_thread even when !CONFIG_COMPAT, so you don't need
that #ifdef.

Right. I will remove it.

+#ifdef __AARCH64EB__
+ return AUDIT_ARCH_ARMEB; /* only BE on BE */

Well, actually, we only support userspace to be the same endianness as the
kernel, so you that comment is slightly misleading. You could probably avoid
these repeated ifdefs by defining things like ARM64_AUDIT_ARCH and
ARM64_COMPAT_AUDIT_ARCH once depending on endianness.

As in the discussions about "audit(userspace)", if we don't have to care
about endianness, I will remove this #ifdef instead.

Thanks,
