[PATCH 1/4] export kernel call get_task_comm().

From: james_p_freyensee

From: J Freyensee <james_p_freyensee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This allows drivers who call this function to be compiled modularly.
Otherwise, a driver who is interested in this type of functionality
has to implement their own get_task_comm() call, causing code
duplication in the Linux source tree.
