I think you can just use AUDIT_ARCH_ARM unconditionally here as the syscall
ABI is not related to the endianness of the CPU. I believe AUDIT_ARCH_ARMEB
was added accidentally because somebody incorrectly thought the -EB suffix
signified EABI.

If it wasn't in a user-header I'd be all for deleting the old definition...
