4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f8494fa3dd10b52eab47a9666a8bc34719a129aa upstream.
Currently ftrace displays data in trace output like so:
_-----=> irqs-off
/ _----=> need-resched
| / _---=> hardirq/softirq
|| / _--=> preempt-depth
||| / delay
TASK-PID CPU TGID |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
| | | | |||| | |
bash-1091 [000] ( 1091) d..2 28.313544: sched_switch:
However Android's trace visualization tools expect a slightly different
format due to an out-of-tree patch patch that was been carried for a
decade, notice that the TGID and CPU fields are reversed:
_-----=> irqs-off
/ _----=> need-resched
| / _---=> hardirq/softirq
|| / _--=> preempt-depth
||| / delay
TASK-PID TGID CPU |||| TIMESTAMP FUNCTION
| | | | |||| | |
bash-1091 ( 1091) [002] d..2 64.965177: sched_switch:
>From kernel v4.13 onwards, during which TGID was introduced, tracing
with systrace on all Android kernels will break (most Android kernels
have been on 4.9 with Android patches, so this issues hasn't been seen
yet). From v4.13 onwards things will break.
The chrome browser's tracing tools also embed the systrace viewer which
uses the legacy TGID format and updates to that are known to be
difficult to make.
Considering this, I suggest we make this change to the upstream kernel
and backport it to all Android kernels. I believe this feature is merged
recently enough into the upstream kernel that it shouldn't be a problem.
Also logically, IMO it makes more sense to group the TGID with the
TASK-PID and the CPU after these.
