This patch reduces the memory usage.(save 128K memory in kernel)
But it's too complicated, and it changes the original algorithm.
This new patch does NOT change the original algorithm,
but it uses a hash table to simulate the sparse array.
---------------
Subject: [PATCH] tracing: use hash table to simulate the sparse array
I found the sparse array map_pid_to_cmdline[PID_MAX_DEFAULT+1]
wastes too much memory, so I remove it.
A hash table is added to simulate the sparse array. And
map_pid_to_cmdline and map_cmdline_to_pid become light functions.
map_pid_to_cmdline[pid] ==> map_pid_to_cmdline(pid)
map_cmdline_to_pid[idx] ==> map_cmdline_to_pid(idx)
[Impact: save about 127k memory]
