audit: overhaul __audit_inode_child to accomodate retrying
In order to accomodate retrying path-based syscalls, we need to add a new "type" argument to audit_inode_child. This will tell us whether we're looking for a child entry that represents a create or a delete. If we find a parent, don't automatically assume that we need to create a new entry. Instead, use the information we have to try to find an existing entry first. Update it if one is found and create a new one if not.
