Regarding fix-journald-audit-logging.patch : A small modification has been done for this patch. Extra space was removed because it resulted in improper patch application as "Patch unexpectedly ends in middle of line". When I removed that extra space, the patch applied cleanly.

@akhila-guruju We need full-build results as this PR touches bootstrap package too. Please co-ordinate with any of the reviewers to trigger the full-build.

@dmcilvaney Can you please verify the full-build for proper building of systemd-bootstrap package and the final systemd getting built with the newly built bootstrap package once it is triggered by @akhila-guruju ?

[Kanishk-Bansal]

Full Build passes, we can keep the PR going

Toolchain did use the new systmed-bootstrap
