audit: Initialize lsmctx to avoid memory allocation error

Browse source 
When audit is enabled in a kernel build, and there are no LSMs active
that support LSM labeling, it is possible that local variable lsmctx
in the AUDIT_SIGNAL_INFO handler in audit_receive_msg() could be used
before it is properly initialize. Then kmalloc() will try to allocate
a large amount of memory with the uninitialized length.

This patch corrects this problem by initializing the lsmctx to a safe
value when it is declared, which avoid errors like:
