it would be nice to record 1) the jiffies value at the time of
allocation, 2) the PID and the comm of the task that did the allocation.
The jiffies timestamp would be useful to see the age of the allocation,
and the PID/comm is useful for context.
Trying to copy the comm with get_task_comm, I get the lockdep report
below, caused by acquiring the task's alloc_lock. Any idea how to go
around this?
