audit: prepare audit_context for use in calling contexts beyond syscalls
This patch cleans up some of our audit_context handling by
abstracting out the reset and return code fixup handling to dedicated
functions. Not only does this help make things easier to read and
inspect, it allows for easier reuse by future patches. We also
convert the simple audit_context->in_syscall flag into an enum which
can be used to by future patches to indicate a calling context other
than the syscall context.
Thanks to Richard Guy Briggs for review and feedback.
