[PATCH 1/1] fix-taskstates-in-sched_switch-trace.patch

[Carsten Emde]

The sched_switch trace event displays erroneous character codes of task
states, after a new task state was added in the scheduler code but
omitted to add in the trace event code.

Define character codes of task states individually. In addition, define
task state descriptions needed in /proc at the same place. This will
help to keep the task state bits, characters and descriptions in sync
should they ever need to be changed again.
