Subject: mm/page_owner.c: use get_task_comm() to record task command name with the protection of task_lock()
I noticed that it is advised to access task command name with
[gs]et_task_comm() in the comment of task_struct->comm, which is safer
with the protection of task_lock().
Relative comment in include/linux/sched.h is as follows:
/*
* executable name, excluding path.
*
* - normally initialized setup_new_exec()
* - access it with [gs]et_task_comm()
* - lock it with task_lock()
*/
