Follow the advice of the Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst and show()
should only use sysfs_emit() or sysfs_emit_at() when formatting the
value to be returned to user space.

SELinux uses securityfs, not sysfs, for entries under /sys/fs/selinux.

Sorry, a little mental mistake in the above, SELinux uses *selinuxfs*
and not sysfs.
