audit: efficiency fix 2: request exclusive wait since all need same resource

These and similar errors were seen on a patched 3.8 kernel when the
audit subsystem was overrun during boot:

  udevd[876]: worker [887] unexpectedly returned with status 0x0100
  udevd[876]: worker [887] failed while handling
'/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:40:00.0'
  udevd[876]: worker [880] unexpectedly returned with status 0x0100
  udevd[876]: worker [880] failed while handling
'/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input1/event1'

  udevadm settle - timeout of 180 seconds reached, the event queue
contains:
    /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXPWRBN:00/input/input1/event1 (3995)
    /sys/devices/LNXSYSTM:00/LNXSYBUS:00/PNP0A08:00/INT3F0D:00 (4034)

  audit: audit_backlog=258 > audit_backlog_limit=256
  audit: audit_lost=1 audit_rate_limit=0 audit_backlog_limit=256

The change below increases the efficiency of the audit code and prevents it
from being overrun:

Use add_wait_queue_exclusive() in wait_for_auditd() to put the
thread on the wait queue.  When kauditd dequeues an skb, all
of the waiting threads are waiting for the same resource, but
only one is going to get it, so there's no need to wake up
more than one waiter.
