Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"Six audit patches for v6.1, most are pretty trivial, but a quick list
of the highlights are below:
- Only free the audit proctitle information on task exit. This allows
us to cache the information and improve performance slightly.
- Use the time_after() macro to do time comparisons instead of doing
it directly and potentially causing ourselves problems when the
timer wraps.
- Convert an audit_context state comparison from a relative enum
comparison, e.g. (x < y), to a not-equal comparison to ensure that
we are not caught out at some unknown point in the future by an
enum shuffle.
- A handful of small cleanups such as tidying up comments and
removing unused declarations"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
