Paul,
Thanks for your review.

jumped out at me when glancing at your patch:
1. SELinux SIDs should not be recorded
Almost all code that logs SELinux contexts
in kernel/audit* does the same thing as this patch, falling back to a SID if it can't
be converted to a string.
2. From a SELinux/security point of view ttys are considered
objects
and their labels/contexts should be recorded with "obj=" not
"subj="
The patch logs the context of the process, not of the TTY.

Ungh, that's ugly and questionably useful (I suppose I know why this is done)
but if that convention then who am I to argue.

Okay, that is what I get for just glancing at patches and not looking at them
closer :)
