We already have audit_log_task() which gives:
auid=
uid=
gid=
ses=
subj=
pid=
comm=
exe=
This is missing tty=, but has gid=. Can we please use that function
instead and add tty=? And while we are at it, refactor
audit_log_task_info() to call audit_log_task()?
Is this standard set above what should be used for certain classes of
log messages?
Yes, it will be in a different order because we don't have a canonical
order yet. Can we accept two orders of keywords so we can start
canonicalizing, please?

Where did you find that name? That could work and it is shorter, but it
seems awkwardly optimized. "nlnk" doesn't appear once in the kernel.
"nl" is already recognized for netlink, "mcgrp" is already used for
"multicast group(s)", so I would suggest "nl-mcgrp".
