audit: do not needlessly take a spinlock in copy_signal
current->signal->audit_* can only change from a netlink message from current. Obviously in this case we cannot be handling a netlink message from current. So there is no change these can change under us. No need to take a lock to read them. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
