Fix to make the type of $comm "string". If we set the other type to $comm argument, it shows meaningless value or wrong data. Currently probe events allow us to set string array type (e.g. ":string[2]"), or other digit types like x8 on $comm. But since clearly $comm is just a string data, it should not be fetched by other types including array.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
