Arent't you doing here a similar thing in terms of getting arch as Eric

Eric's comment was about x86, where the audit arch could change on the
fly.  For ARM, the audit arch doesn't change---syscall_get_arch()
always returns AUDIT_ARCH_ARM.

Hi,

Indeed, syscall_get_arch() will only return AUDIT_ARCH_ARM on ARM right now. This might be more future proof to call syscall_get_arch() though. The main reason that comes to my mind would be an AArch64 kernel with support for AArch32 userland tasks. This would I expect require a different AUDIT_ARCH constant to differenciate between AArch64 and AArch32 tasks.
