indeed.

here is updated one (with these part removed)

Instead of removing that part completely, why not print this:
"audit: lost=%d rate_limit=%d backlog_limit=%d\n"

In that line there were too many 'audit's IMHO, and if someone wants to grep 'audit_lost=' he still can, 'audit:.*lost=' or something like that..
