Zhaolei b11c53e12f ftrace: Add task_comm support for trace_event
If we enable a trace event alone without any tracer running (such as
function tracer, sched switch tracer, etc...) it can't output enough
task command information.

We need to use the tracing_{start/stop}_cmdline_record() helpers
which are designed to keep track of cmdlines for any tasks that
were scheduled during the tracing.

Before this patch:
 # echo 1 > debugfs/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
 # cat debugfs/tracing/trace
 # tracer: nop
 #
 #           TASK-PID    CPU#    TIMESTAMP  FUNCTION
 #              | |       |          |         |
            <...>-2289  [000] 526276.724790: sched_switch: task bash:2289 [120] ==> sshd:2287 [120]
            <...>-2287  [000] 526276.725231: sched_switch: task sshd:2287 [120] ==> bash:2289 [120]

 # tracer: nop

           <idle>-0     [000] 527348.531989: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> events/0:5 [115]
         events/0-5     [000] 527348.532115: sched_switch: task events/0:5 [115] ==> swapper:0 [140]
 ...

Changelog:
v1->v2: Update Kconfig to select CONTEXT_SWITCH_TRACER in
        ENABLE_EVENT_TRACING
v2->v3: v2 can solve problem that was caused by config EVENT_TRACING
        alone, but when CONFIG_FTRACE is off and CONFIG_TRACING is
        selected by other config, compile fail happened again.
        This version solves it.

[ Impact: fix incomplete output of event tracing ]
