Log:
  Don't acquire evclass_lock with a spinlock held
  
  When the "pc" audit class is enabled and auditd is running, witness will
  panic during thread exit because au_event_class tries to lock an rwlock
  while holding a spinlock acquired upstack by thread_exit.
  
  To fix this, move AUDIT_SYSCALL_EXIT futher upstack, before the spinlock is
  acquired. Of thread_exit's 16 callers, it's only necessary to call
  AUDIT_SYSCALL_EXIT from two, exit1 (for exiting processes) and kern_thr_exit
  (for exiting threads). The other callers are all kernel threads, which
  needen't call AUDIT_SYSCALL_EXIT because since they can't make syscalls
  there will be nothing to audit.  And exit1 already does call
  AUDIT_SYSCALL_EXIT, making the second call in thread_exit redundant for that
  case.
