Users of the audit system may choose to use it however they like.  Steve
and I have agreed to disagree (or at least realized that we will never
agree) on the use of 'audit_log_string'.  As the audit kernel maintainer
I will not ask AppArmor to change what they use and I will continue to
request more users of the kernel audit system to use the *log_string
functions instead of using %s.

Given that, I think the only reasonable option is your patch, so thank
you so much!
