Let's make sure we always use a comma as a separator, even when
recording the parent information, for example:
"contid=<contid>[,^<contid>[...]][,<contid>[...]]"

If we need a forward declaration, might as well just move it up near
the top of the file with the rest of the declarations.

It seems safer to pass the audit container ID object and not the u64.

Do we really want to print (u64)-1 here?  Since this is a known
invalid number, would "?" be a better choice?

Why not just pull the code below into the body of this if statement?
It all needs to be done under the RCU read lock anyway and the code
would read much better this way.

In the interest of limiting the number of calls to audit_log_format(),
how about something like the following:

  audit_log_format("%llu", cont);
  iter = cont->parent;
  while (iter) {
    if (iter->parent)
      audit_log_format("^%llu,", iter);
    else
      audit_log_format("^%llu", iter);
    iter = iter->parent;
  }

This is an interesting case where contid and old-contid are going to
be largely the same, only the first (current) ID is going to be
different; do we want to duplicate all of those IDs?
