Subject: [PATCH v3] tracing: expose current->comm to [ku]probe 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/uprobe
event variable $comm which provides exactly that.

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

Alexei pointed out to me that this same functionality can be acheived
with BPF and the bpf_get_current_comm() helper, so strictly speaking,
this patch isn't necessary. It's still convenient for ad-hoc stuff,
though, so I figured I'd throw this up and see what everyone thought.
