[AUDIT] create context if auditing was ever enabled
Disabling audit at runtime by auditctl doesn't mean that we can stop allocating contexts for new processes; we don't want to miss them when that sucker is reenabled. (based on work from Al Viro in the RHEL kernel series) Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
