Hi Linus,

I realize this is a little early, but my network access is expected to
be a little spotty the first half of next week so I wanted to get the
Linux v6.8 pull requests out now.  The audit PR is a fairly minor one
with only two patches:

* Send an audit ACK to userspace immediately upon receiving an auditd
registration event as opposed to waiting until the registration has
been fully processed and the audit backlog starts filling the netlink
buffers.  Sending the ACK earlier, as done in this PR, is still safe
as the operation should not fail at the point when the ACK is done,
and doing so helps avoid the ACK being dropped in extreme situations.

* Update the audit MAINTAINERS entry with additional information.
There isn't anything in this update that should be new to regular
contributors or list subscribers, but I'm pushing to start documenting
our processes, conventions, etc. and this seems like an important part
of that.

Thanks,
-Paul
