Generally, yes, associating records is a separate issue, but in this
particular case you are changing this record by making it a "local"
record, which as we've discussed before, I view as a necessary evil
and something that must be minimized. A quick look at the
tty_audit_log() callers shows tty_audit_tiocsti() which is an ioctl
handler (and thus current should be valid and correct), and
tty_audit_buf_push() whose callers all seem have valid and correct
current values; if you find that not to be the case please let me
know.
