Type patch, cc: tracing people, see what they say? tbh I have no idea, but they have been making unhappy noises about some of the tricks we've played in the past in i915 tracepoints. So not everything is cool in there. Otherwise I guess just add another tracepoint parameter to dump the correct userspace mm. 3rd option could be to dump the current mm (since I'm assuming those threads do kthread_use/unuse_mm to impersonate the right userspace process correctly) in the tracepoint infrastructure too?
