Merge tag 'audit-pr-20240105' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "The audit updates are fairly minor 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 here, 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"
