Subject: [PATCH] tracing: expose current->comm to kprobe events

From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@...com>

ftrace is very quick to give up on saving the task command line (see
`trace_save_cmdline()`). The workaround for events which really care
about the command line is to explicitly assign it as part of the entry.
However, this doesn't work for kprobe events, as there's no
straightforward way to get access to current->comm. Add a kprobe event
variable $comm which provides exactly that.

Signed-off-by: Omar Sandoval <osandov@...com>

This is a problem I ran into while trying to debug an unrelated issue. I
was considering trying to make ftrace try harder to save the command
line, but that would most likely be at the expense at most events which
don't care about the task comm. This is much less work.
