It gets the full pathname string of the link, then converts it to a
struct filename*, and then below, we feed it that struct filename* with
the parent's dentry and the LOOKUP_PARENT flag to drop the last part of
the pathname and set the filetype to PARENT.

I didn't try, it, but I expect if I feed it parent's dentry above, I'd
get only the parent pathname and when I feed it to audit_inode() below
it would again drop the last part of the pathname when the LOOKUP_PARENT
flag is included, or not label it as a filetype PARENT if we don't
include the flag to get the full parent pathname.
