[PATCH 1/2 v5] perf sched: fix wrong conversion of task state
From: Tomoki Sekiyama
Date: Tue Aug 02 2016 - 01:35:55 EST
Currently sched_out_state() converts the prev_state u64 bitmask to a char
using the bitmask as an index, which may cause invalid memory access.
This fixes the issue by using the __ffs() returned value as an index.
