i would prefer keeping a logging and a non-logging variant
maybe rename smk_access & smk_curacc to smk_access_nolog & smk_curacc_nolog
Or you really prefer that we pass a NULL when we want the non-logging?
I guess its a matter of taste, so i let you decide :)

why not, but instead of a "initialiser" for each field i'll prefer a macro
 To save some stack we could also conditionnaly define the "common_audit_data"

something like :

#ifdef CONFIG_AUDIT
#define DEFINE_SMACK_AUDIT_DATA(ad) struct common_audit_data ad
void smack_audit_init(..) {
 COMMON_AUDIT_DATA_INIT(...)
}
#define SMACK_AUDIT_DATA_SET_FIELD(_ad, _field, _value) (_ad._field = _value)
...
#else
#define DEFINE_SMACK_AUDIT_DATA(ad)
void smack_audit_init(..)
{
} 
#define SMACK_AUDIT_DATA_SET_FIELD(_ad, _field, _value) 
#endif
