Did it work for you?
Yes it did. That's what weird to me... I briefly looked at the audit.31
kernel though and see the filesystem_init() function being called. But,
regardless, I think I read somewhere people generally do not like those
types of "init" functions any way.

Sure. The only other benefit that I could think of is that by deferring the
allocation, it only occurs IFF the filesystem auditing is used. Anyone doing
syscall only (or no auditing - just SE Linux avc denials) has a little bit of
memory saved.
Yeah, well the init function could have been macro'ed out. I think its
water under the bridge now, unless there are in fact racey conditions.
