The capability check should not be audited since it is only being used to determine the inode permissions. A failed check does not indicate a violation of security policy but, when an LSM is enabled, a denial audit message was being generated. The denial audit message can either lead to the capability being unnecessarily allowed in a security policy, or being silenced potentially masking a legitimate capability check at a later point in time.
