It is to be considered that this is an error case. If
everything is working normally you should have produced
a secctx previously, which you'll have included in the
audit record. Including the secid in the record ought to
be pointless, as the secid is strictly an internal token
with no meaning outside the running kernel. You are providing
no security relevant information by providing the secid.
I will grant the possibility that the secid might be useful
in debugging, but for that a pr_warn is more appropriate
than a field in the audit record.
