Yes. That's one of improvements made possible by Miklos's patches.

----------
Subject: SELINUX: Set vfsmount field for audit logs.

By applying Miklos's patches which pass "struct vfsmount" to LSM
(posted at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/29/207 ),
SELinux's audit logs can generate absolute pathnames for more operations.
