I believe we could prevent the case mentioned above by taking an
additional reference to the audit container ID object when the signal
information is collected, dropping it only after the signal
information is collected by userspace or another process signals the
audit daemon.  Yes, it would block that audit container ID from being
reused immediately, but since we are talking about one number out of
2^64 that seems like a reasonable tradeoff.
