You can call is_compat_thread even when !CONFIG_COMPAT, so you don't need
that #ifdef.

Well, actually, we only support userspace to be the same endianness as the
kernel, so you that comment is slightly misleading. You could probably avoid
these repeated ifdefs by defining things like ARM64_AUDIT_ARCH and
ARM64_COMPAT_AUDIT_ARCH once depending on endianness.
