[PATCH v5 14/15] sched.h: extend task comm from 16 to 24 for CONFIG_BASE_FULL

[Yafang Shao <laoar.shao@xxxxxxxxx>]

When I was implementing a new per-cpu kthread cfs_migration, I found the
comm of it "cfs_migration/%u" is truncated due to the limitation of
TASK_COMM_LEN. For example, the comm of the percpu thread on CPU10~19 are
all with the same name "cfs_migration/1", which will confuse the user. This
issue is not critical, because we can get the corresponding CPU from the
task's Cpus_allowed. But for kthreads correspoinding to other hardware
devices, it is not easy to get the detailed device info from task comm,
for example,

    jbd2/nvme0n1p2-
    xfs-reclaim/sdf

We can also shorten the name to work around this problem, but I find
there are so many truncated kthreads:

    rcu_tasks_kthre
    rcu_tasks_rude_
    rcu_tasks_trace
    poll_mpt3sas0_s
    ext4-rsv-conver
    xfs-reclaim/sd{a, b, c, ...}
    xfs-blockgc/sd{a, b, c, ...}
    xfs-inodegc/sd{a, b, c, ...}
    audit_send_repl
    ecryptfs-kthrea
    vfio-irqfd-clea
    jbd2/nvme0n1p2-
    ...

We should improve this problem fundamentally.

This patch extends the size of task comm to 24 bytes, which is the
same length with workqueue's, for the CONFIG_BASE_FULL case. And for the
CONFIG_BASE_SMALL case, the size of task comm is still kept as 16 bytes.

After this patchset, the truncated kthreads listed above will be
displayed as:

    rcu_tasks_kthread
    rcu_tasks_rude_kthread
    rcu_tasks_trace_kthread
    poll_mpt3sas0_statu
    ext4-rsv-conversion
    xfs-reclaim/sdf1
    xfs-blockgc/sdf1
    xfs-inodegc/sdf1
    audit_send_reply
    ecryptfs-kthread
    vfio-irqfd-cleanup
    jbd2/nvme0n1p2-8
