> Janne, good point. There's another possible workaround in certain
circumstances. You can also clear the auditd rules which should allow
you to continue working on a running system. This would be done by
issuing an "auditctl -D", after which you should be able to use the
running system, albeit without any auditing.

 I have various systems with auditing that trigger the null reference
without audit rules on the specific pieces.  Ie. `chmod 0755
/run/foobar` hangs, even though a system only has a fs write rule for
/etc/something; I am not sure that clearing the rules is enough. Like
you said: "possible" and "certain circumstances".
