tracing: fix command line to pid reverse map
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Impact: fix command line to pid mapping

map_cmdline_to_pid[] is checked in trace_save_cmdline(), but never
updated. This results in stale pid to command line mappings and the
tracer output will associate the wrong comm string.
