audit: deprecate the AUDIT_FILTER_ENTRY filter
The audit entry filter has been long deprecated with userspace support finally removed in audit-v2.6.7 and plans to remove kernel support have existed since kernel-v2.6.31. Remove it. Since removing the audit entry filter, test for early return before setting up any context state. Passes audit-testsuite.
