Linus,

Two audit fixes for the next Linux v7.2-rc release:

- Fix potential integer overflows in audit_log_n_string()

  Similar to the earlier fix to audit_log_n_hex() that you merged earlier
  in July.  Expect a cleaner, and generally better fix for these
  functions in an upcoming merge window, but this addresses the problem
  in a small patch that should be easy for people to backport.

- Fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule()
