Revert "SELinux: Convert avc_audit to use lsm_audit.h"This reverts commit 8113a8d80f4c6a3dc3724b39b470f3fee9c426b6.
The patch causes a stack overflow on my system during boot.

personality handling: fix PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID for security reasonsWe have found that the current PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID mask on Linux
doesn't include neither ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT, nor MMAP_PAGE_ZERO.
The current mask is READ_IMPLIES_EXEC|ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE.
We believe it is important to add MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, because by using
this personality it is possible to have the first page mapped inside a
process running as setuid root. This could be used in those scenarios:

SELinux: Convert avc_audit to use lsm_audit.hConvert avc_audit in security/selinux/avc.c to use lsm_audit.h,
for better maintainability and for less code duplication.
- changed selinux to use common_audit_data instead of
avc_audit_data
- eliminated code in avc.c and used code from lsm_audit.h instead.
I have tested to make sure that the avcs look the same before and
after this patch.
