Fix ima_policy.c sparse "warning: dereference of noderef expression"
message, by accessing cred-&gt;uid using current_cred().

Changelog v1:
- Change __cred to just cred (based on David Howell's comment)

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/audit: (29 commits)
  audit: no leading space in audit_log_d_path prefix
  audit: treat s_id as an untrusted string
  audit: fix signedness bug in audit_log_execve_info()
  audit: comparison on interprocess fields
  audit: implement all object interfield comparisons
  audit: allow interfield comparison between gid and ogid
  audit: complex interfield comparison helper
  audit: allow interfield comparison in audit rules
  Kernel: Audit Support For The ARM Platform
  audit: do not call audit_getname on error
  audit: only allow tasks to set their loginuid if it is -1
  audit: remove task argument to audit_set_loginuid
  audit: allow audit matching on inode gid
  audit: allow matching on obj_uid
  audit: remove audit_finish_fork as it can't be called
  audit: reject entry,always rules
  audit: inline audit_free to simplify the look of generic code
  audit: drop audit_set_macxattr as it doesn't do anything
  audit: inline checks for not needing to collect aux records
  audit: drop some potentially inadvisable likely notations
  ...

Use evil merge to fix up grammar mistakes in Kconfig file.

Bad speling and horrible grammar (and copious swearing) is to be
expected, but let's keep it to commit messages and comments, rather than
expose it to users in config help texts or printouts.

Enabling CONFIG_PROVE_RCU and CONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER resulted in
"suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!" and "incompatible types
in comparison expression (different address spaces)" messages.

Access the masterkey directly when holding the rwsem.

Changelog v1:
- Use either rcu_read_lock()/rcu_derefence_key()/rcu_read_unlock()
or remove the unnecessary rcu_derefence() - David Howells

<content type='text'>
Add missing smp_rmb() primitives to the keyring search code.

When keyring payloads are appended to without replacement (thus using up spare
slots in the key pointer array), an smp_wmb() is issued between the pointer
assignment and the increment of the key count (nkeys).

There should be corresponding read barriers between the read of nkeys and
dereferences of keys[n] when n is dependent on the value of nkeys.

TOMOYO 2.5 in Linux 3.2 and later handles Unix domain socket's address.
Thus, tomoyo_correct_word2() needs to accept \000 as a valid character, or
TOMOYO 2.5 cannot handle Unix domain's abstract socket address.
