[RFC PATCH ghak10 2/3] audit: Add the audit_adjtime() function

[Ondrej Mosnacek <omosnace@redhat.com>]

This patch adds a new function that shall be used to log any
modification of the system's clock (via the adjtimex() syscall).

The function logs an audit record of type AUDIT_TIME_ADJUSTED with the
following fields:
* txmodes  (the 'modes' field of struct timex)
* txoffset (the 'offset' field of struct timex)
* txfreq   (the 'freq' field of struct timex)
* txmaxerr (the 'maxerror' field of struct timex)
* txesterr (the 'esterror' field of struct timex)
* txstatus (the 'status' field of struct timex)
* txconst  (the 'constant' field of struct timex)
* txsec, txusec (the 'tv_sec' and 'tv_usec' fields of the 'time' field
  of struct timex (respectively))
* txtick   (the 'tick' field of struct timex)

These fields allow to reconstruct what exactly was changed by the
adjtimex syscall and to what value(s). Note that the values reported are
taken directly from the structure as received from userspace. The
syscall handling code may do some clamping of the values internally
before actually changing the kernel variables. Also, the fact that this
record has been logged does not necessarily mean that some variable was
changed (it may have been set to the same value as the old value).

Quick overview of the 'struct timex' semantics:
  The 'modes' field is a bitmask specifying which time variables (if
  any) should be adjusted. The other fields (of those listed above)
  contain the values of the respective variables that should be set. If
  the corresponding bit is not set in the 'modes' field, then a field's
  value is not significant (it may be some garbage value passed from
  userspace).

  Note that after processing the input values from userspace, the
  handler writes (all) the current (new) internal values into the struct
  and hands it back to userspace. These values are not logged.

  Also note that 'txusec' may actually mean nanoseconds, not
  microseconds, depending on whether ADJ_NSEC is set in 'modes'.

Possible improvements:
* log only the fields that contain valid values (based on 'modes' field)
  - this is not hard to implement, but will require some non-trivial
    logic inside audit_adjtime() that will need to mirror the logic in
    ntp.c -- do we want that?
* move the conditional for logging/not logging into audit_adjtime()
  - (see also next patch in series)
  - may not be desirable due to reasons above
  - we should probably either do both this and above or neither
* log also the old values + the actual values that get set
  - this would be rather difficult to do, probably not worth it
