[RFC PATCH 1/2] sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting sched_switch event

[Valentin Schneider]

As of commit

  c6e7bd7afaeb ("sched/core: Optimize ttwu() spinning on p->on_cpu")

the following sequence becomes possible:

		      p->__state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
		      __schedule()
			deactivate_task(p);
  ttwu()
    READ !p->on_rq
    p->__state=TASK_WAKING
			trace_sched_switch()
			  __trace_sched_switch_state()
			    task_state_index()
			      return 0;

TASK_WAKING isn't in TASK_REPORT, so the task appears as TASK_RUNNING in
the trace event.

Prevent this by pushing the value read from __schedule() down the trace
event.
