Some module parameters with only one line have the '\n' at the end of the
description. This is not needed nor wanted as after the description the
type (i.e. int) is followed by a newline.
Some modules contain a multi-line description, these are not affected
by this patch.

My commit 2b2a1ff64a introduced a regression
(sorry about that) for the odd case of exit_signal=0 (e.g. clone_flags=0).
This is not a normal use, but it's used by a case in the glibc test suite.
Dying with exit_signal=0 sends no signal, but it's supposed to wake up a
parent's blocked wait*() calls (unlike the delayed_group_leader case).
This fixes tracehook_notify_death() and its caller to distinguish a
"signal 0" wakeup from the delayed_group_leader case (with no wakeup).

When calling audit_filter_task(), it calls audit_filter_rules() with audit_context is NULL.
If the key field is set, the result in audit_filter_rules() will be set to 1 and

Hello,
According to my understanding there is an off-by-one bug in the
function:
audit_string_contains_control()
in:
kernel/audit.c
Patch is included.
I do not know from how many places the function is called from, but for
example, SELinux Access Vector Cache tries to log untrusted filenames via
call path:
avc_audit()
audit_log_untrustedstring()
audit_log_n_untrustedstring()
audit_string_contains_control()
If audit_string_contains_control() detects control characters, then the
string is hex-encoded. But the hex=0x7f dec=127, DEL-character, is not
detected.
I guess this could have at least some minor security implications, since a
user can create a filename with 0x7f in it, causing logged filename to
possibly look different when someone reads it on the terminal.

Makes the kernel audit subsystem collect information about the sending
process when that process sends SIGUSR2 to the userspace audit daemon.
SIGUSR2 is a new interesting signal to auditd telling auditd that it
should try to start logging to disk again and the error condition which
caused it to stop logging to disk (usually out of space) has been
rectified.

Id which proc gets from IDR for inode number and id which proc removes
from IDR do not match. E.g. 0x11a transforms into 0x8000011a.
Which stayed unnoticed for a long time because, surprise, idr_remove()
masks out that high bit before doing anything.
All of this due to "| ~MAX_ID_MASK" in release_inode_number().
I still don't understand how it's supposed to work, because "| ~MASK"
is not an inversion for "& MAX" operation.
So, use just one nice, working addition. Make start offset unsigned int,
while I'm at it. It's longness is not used anywhere.
