This is not about your patch but I see this pattern happen often. We should
start think about a way to use tracing_record_cmdline for that.

These pointer addresses are not very useful to display.
We can zap work and display the func as a %pF.
Not related to your patch: only the name of the func is useful,
not its asm offset. A format for raw func name without offset would
start to become very handy. I remember Andrew talked about that by the past.
I wonder which format we could use for that. %pf ?

ditto.

But the rest looks fine.
Thanks!
