Thanks for having a look at the field name I was using. Although I
prefer "errno" over "exit" in terms of clarity, I agree that it makes
sense to be consistent with the field names across record types. "exit"
works for me.

This patch goes against your normalization efforts in more ways than
just the placement of the "exit" field. If the action is
SECCOMP_RET_KILL, a "sig" field is present but if the action is
SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO, the "sig" field will not be present but the "errno"
field will be present. This happens all within the AUDIT_SECCOMP record
type. How would you suggest normalizing AUDIT_SECCOMP records for
different seccomp return actions?
