Ricardo Robaina e92eebb0d6 audit: fix suffixed '/' filename matching
When the user specifies a directory to delete with the suffix '/',
the audit record fails to collect the filename, resulting in the
following logs:

 type=PATH msg=audit(10/30/2024 14:11:17.796:6304) : item=2 name=(null)
 type=PATH msg=audit(10/30/2024 14:11:17.796:6304) : item=1 name=(null)

It happens because the value of the variables dname, and n->name->name
in __audit_inode_child() differ only by the suffix '/'. This commit
treats this corner case by handling pathname's trailing slashes in
audit_compare_dname_path().

Steps to reproduce the issue:

 # auditctl -w /tmp
 $ mkdir /tmp/foo
 $ rm -r /tmp/foo/
 # ausearch -i | grep PATH | tail -3

The first version of this patch was based on a GitHub patch/PR by
user @hqh2010 [1].

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
