Only question I have is whether audit folks are ok with reuse of the
flags in this manner, and whether the _USER flag is best suited for this
purpose if you are going to reuse an existing flag (since Smack label
seems more like a SELinux type than a SELinux user).

Certainly will confuse matters if a user has audit filters on SELinux
users in their /etc/audit/audit.rules and then boots a kernel with Smack
enabled.
