This looks fine.

It needs to be said again that I'm opposed to changes like this:
inserting new fields, removing fields, or otherwise changing the
format in ways that aren't strictly the addition of new fields to the
end of a record is a Bad Thing. However, there are exceptions (there
are *always* exceptions), and this seems like a reasonable change that
shouldn't negatively affect anyone.
I'll merge this once the merge window comes to a close (we are going
to need to base selinux/next on v4.17-rc1).
Merged into selinux/next, although I should mention that there were
some actual code changes because of the SELinux state consolidation
patches that went into v4.17. The changes were small but please take
a look and make sure everything still looks okay to you.
