Log:
  vfs: stop duplicating vnode work in audit during path lookup
  
  Duplicating the work was putting an avoidable requirement that the filedesc
  lock is held across the entire operation (otherwise by the time audit reads
  vnode pointers another thread in the same process can chdir somewhere else,
  making audit log things using different vnode than the one which will be
  used for actual lookup).
  
  Do the obvious thing and pass down vnodes which will be used.
