When we check if a task has been switched out since the last scan, we might
have a race condition on the following scenario:
- the task is freshly created and scheduled
- it puts its state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and is not yet switched out
- check_hung_task() scans this task and will report a false positive because
t->nvcsw + t->nivcsw == t->last_switch_count == 0
Add a check for such cases.

I noticed by pure accident we have ptrace_fork() and friends. This was
added by "x86, bts: add fork and exit handling", commit
bf53de907d.
I can't test this, ds_request_bts() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, but I strongly
believe this needs the fix. I think something like this program
int main(void)
{
int pid = fork();
if (!pid) {
ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0, NULL, NULL);
kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
fork();
} else {
struct ptrace_bts_config bts = {
.flags = PTRACE_BTS_O_ALLOC,
.size = 4 * 4096,
};
wait(NULL);
ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, NULL, PTRACE_O_TRACEFORK);
ptrace(PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG, pid, &bts, sizeof(bts));
ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, NULL, NULL);
sleep(1);
}
return 0;
}
should crash the kernel.
If the task is traced by its natural parent ptrace_reparented() returns 0
but we should clear ->btsxxx anyway.

Impact: Fix bug
I found several very very curious line.
It's so curious that it may be brought by typing mistake.
When (cpu_buffer->reader_page == cpu_buffer->commit_page):
1) We haven't copied it for bpage is changed:
bpage = cpu_buffer->reader_page->page;
memcpy(bpage->data, cpu_buffer->reader_page->page->data + read ... )
2) We need update cpu_buffer->reader_page->read, but
"cpu_buffer->reader_page += read;" is not right.
[
This bug was a typo. The commit->reader_page is a page pointer
and not an index into the page. The line should have been
commit->reader_page->read += read. The other changes
by Lai are nice clean ups to the code. - SDR

When one cats the trace file, the leaf functions are printed without brackets:
function();
whereas in the trace_pipe file we'll see the following:
function() {
}
This is because the ring_buffer handling is not the same between those two files.
On the trace file, when an entry is printed, the iterator advanced and then we can
check the next entry.
There is no iterator with trace_pipe, the current entry to print has been peeked
and not consumed. So checking the next entry will still return the current one while
we don't consume it.
This patch introduces a new value for the output callbacks to ask the tracing
core to not consume the current entry after printing it.
We need it because we will have to consume the current entry ourself to check
the next one.
Now the trace_pipe is able to handle well the leaf functions.

When the function graph tracer picks a return address, it ensures this address
is really a kernel text one by calling __kernel_text_address()
Actually this path has never been taken.Its role was more likely to debug the tracer
on the beginning of its development but this function is wasteful since it is called
for every traced function.
