audit: do not get and put just to free a watch
deleting audit watch rules is not currently done under audit_filter_mutex. It was done this way because we could not hold the mutex during inotify manipulation. Since we are using fsnotify we don't need to do the extra get/put pair nor do we need the private list on which to store the parents while they are about to be freed.
