We don't have code for auditing serial/parallel/channel devices
since it was out of scope for the original security certification.
We need to fix that at some point, so yes, labelling chardevs is
relevant. We don't need to worry about network cases, only where
the chardev points to some resource that is visible in the host
filesystem, so a plain file, device node, UNIX socket, etc
