audit: Provide helper for dropping mark's chunk reference

Browse Source 
Provide a helper function audit_mark_put_chunk() for dropping mark's
reference (which has to happen only after RCU grace period expires).
Currently that happens only from a single place but in later patches we
introduce more callers.
