I had a stab at doing a GFP_KERNEL alloc before the spinlock and releasing it
after if it wasn't needed (in Patch#1 below). I also went one step further and
converted it to kmem_cache (in Patch#2 below).

Both appear to work, but after successfully running both the contid test and
audit_testsuite, once I start to push that test system a bit harder I end up
with a deadlock warning.

I am having trouble understanding why since it happens both without and with
the kmem_cache options, so it must be another part of the code that is
triggering it. The task_lock is being held at this point in
audit_set_contid(). I haven't tried changing this alloc over to a GFP_ATOMIC
to see if that prevents it, just as a debugging check...
At this point, I'm inclined to leave it as it was without these two patches
since it works and there doesn't seem to be an obvious best way given the
uncertainty of the potential workloads.
