This fixes bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1079469

Instead of auditing all seccomp actions, only force the reporting of
those that kill a process. All others should be checked for an existing
audit context on the process. (This improves the adjustment that
commit 426ae7eee59e3de2a4c14ccfc30df0a7d64709fe was attempting.)

(Note that a patch doing this for upstream will be more involved, changing
the audit messages based on seccomp action, etc, but this is sufficient for
eliminating the needless noise/logs in precise.)

Thanks,
