As the audit maintainer I NAK. I NAK any patch that calls audit_log_format() with %s. Use an audit_log_string() function unless you can prove to me it meets all of the audit string handling rules (and you know them). That part isn't too hard to fix but....
I'd like to register an objection to this patch as a whole. I know it's a pain and its probably going to take a little reshaping of your userspace tools that ran against your out of tree patches, but we get a lot of work for free if you would make use of the lsm_audit.{c,h} file instead of redoing everything. Extend it as you need to the same way that SMACK and SELinux did. Personally I think it needs a generic lsm=%s (SMACK does it in smack_log_callback, SELinux doesn't do it but could/should)
I don't think we want to use more AUDIT messages for the same thing even if someone in userspace said you could a long time ago.
LSM unification and code sharing is a good thing, even if the LSMs can't agree on much else :)
