This patch adds basic auditing to io_uring operations, regardless of
their context. This is accomplished by allocating audit_context
structures for the io-wq worker and io_uring SQPOLL kernel threads
as well as explicitly auditing the io_uring operations in
io_issue_sqe(). Individual io_uring operations can bypass auditing
through the "audit_skip" field in the struct io_op_def definition for
the operation; although great care must be taken so that security
relevant io_uring operations do not bypass auditing; please contact
the audit mailing list (see the MAINTAINERS file) with any questions.
The io_uring operations are audited using a new AUDIT_URINGOP record,
an example is shown below:
type=UNKNOWN[1336] msg=audit(1630523381.288:260):
uring_op=19 success=yes exit=0 items=0 ppid=853 pid=1204
auid=0 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0
subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
key=(null)
AUID="root" UID="root" GID="root" EUID="root" SUID="root"
FSUID="root" EGID="root" SGID="root" FSGID="root"
Thanks to Richard Guy Briggs for review and feedback.

v3:
- removed work-in-progress warning from the description
v2:
- added dummy funcs for audit_uring_{entry,exit}()
- replaced opcode checks in io_issue_sqe() with audit_skip checks
- moved fastpath checks into audit_uring_{entry,exit}()
- audit_log_uring() uses GFP_ATOMIC
- don't record the arch in __audit_uring_entry()
v1:
- initial draft
