To fix the same, Linus suggested in [1] that we can add the
following union inside 'task_struct':
        union {
                char    comm[TASK_COMM_LEN];
                char    real_comm[REAL_TASK_COMM_LEN];
        };
Nit: IMHO, the prefix "real_" is misleading. The buffer size is still
       limited and the name might be shrinked. I would suggest
Agreed.

       something like:

	char    comm_ext[TASK_COMM_EXT_LEN];
or
	char    comm_64[TASK_COMM_64_LEN]
I prefer "comm_ext" as I don't think we want to hard code the actual size.
Who knows, in the future we may extend it again!


Ok, let me use 'comm_64' instead in v4.

Thanks for the review.
