[PATCH 1/1] hung_task debugging: Add tracepoint to report the hang

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>]

Currently check_hung_task() prints a warning if it detects the
problem, but it is not convenient to watch the system logs if
user-space wants to be notified about the hang.

Add the new trace_sched_process_hang() into check_hung_task(),
this way a user-space monitor can easily wait for the hang and
potentially resolve a problem.
