Dont-enable-audit.patch

It's explained at:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2014-December/026591.html

As explained at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160046

It looks like a limitation of kernel that could be solved by:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1857321

But that topic has stalled completely

I would then apply the attached patch (that is the one applied in Ubuntu to workaround this problem)

Thanks for considering it

Ah, I was wondering about this; I disabled CONFIG_AUDIT just to shut it up.

No objection from me.
