Hello,

This patch needs to be refactored to match the current count of error messages 
in err_msgtab.

What error message is emitted when run on a kernel that does not support the 
new filter?

Are we sure path is the best name for this filter? Is there something more 
precise like filesystem?

I don't think this is real clear. Maybe some others need touching up here as 
well. But we should say something someone with a casual knowledge of audit 
would understand.

Numbers need re-aligning.
