tracing: Update the comm field in the right variable in update_max_tr

The latency output showed:

 #    | task: -3 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:1 rt_prio:99)

The comm is missing in the "task:" and it looks like a minus 3 is
the output. The correct display should be:

 #    | task: migration/0-3 (uid:0 nice:0 policy:1 rt_prio:99)

The problem is that the comm is being stored in the wrong data
structure. The max_tr.data[cpu] is what stores the comm, not the
tr->data[cpu].

Before this patch the max_tr.data[cpu]->comm was zeroed and the /debug/trace
ended up showing just the '-' sign followed by the pid.

Also remove a needless initialization of max_data.
