I didn't notice this in v35, but if the nlmsg_put() fails I think you
need to preserve the 'goto err;' since the skb hasn't been properly
initialized.  The good news is that I don't think you need to worry
about the 'kfree_skb(ab->skb);' in the error handler as it's already
been placed on the audit_buffer:skb_list list and will be freed when
audit_buffer_alloc()'s error handling code calls audit_buffer_free().
