[PATCH git] fix missing records when watched files removed

audit_update_watch() invalidates rule data early, before we hit the
syscall exit filter.  This means audit fails to emit records when
watched files or directories are removed.  Fix by calling
audit_filter_inodes() right before the update.

Al, please fold this one in with latest filesystem auditing patch
46c438b705c31284f31c64a0d18bf3bd6c62cde3.
