Subject[RFC PATCH ghak21 2/4] audit: link denied should not directly generate PATH record
Date
Audit link denied events generate duplicate PATH records which disagree
in different ways from symlink and hardlink denials.
audit_log_link_denied() should not directly generate PATH records.

See: https://github.com/linux-audit/audit-kernel/issues/21
