audit: Send netlink ACK before setting connection in auditd_set
When auditd_set sets the auditd_conn pointer, audit messages can
immediately be put on the socket by other kernel threads. If the backlog
is large or the rate is high, this can immediately fill the socket
buffer. If the audit daemon requested an ACK for this operation, a full
socket buffer causes the ACK to get dropped, also setting ENOBUFS on the
socket.
To avoid this race and ensure ACKs get through, fast-track the ACK in
this specific case to ensure it is sent before auditd_conn is set.
