Asking around, I got: "yes, dracut uses systemd these days"

So, yes, that is the source of this record.

So if there is no syscall associated with that record, it appears we
need those subject attributes.

Next question, why do the other records generated from the test not
automatically trigger a syscall record when audit=1 on the kernel
command line?
