I *think* this is ok, since we re-check the TIF bits in syscall_trace_exit(). This does mean that we'd now always call audit_syscall_exit(), regardless of TIF_AUDIT, but there are already cases when we call that with TIF_AUDIT clear, so I think if that's a problem it's a latent bug. Likewise for audit_syscall_entry(). It seems we're in the same boat as other architectures there, regardless. FWIW, for the entry bits: Acked-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutl...@arm.com> Mark.
