Because you have this disembodied information that is not correlated with the 
avc. (yes there is a serial number that ties them together, but we agreed a 
long time ago that everything with the same serial number comes out in a 
group with nothing in between.) The avc should mark the context auditable and 
add to what gets emitted at syscall exit. 

The other case for avcs is when you have an avc off of an interrupt. In this 
case, there is no syscall, so it should be an avc standing alone.
