Align the values using tabs for readability, and since you're using
TASK_COMM_LEN here please include sched.h instead of relying on
intermediate header which may not guarantee it for other archs and
randconfigs.

Let's make this reverse xmas order and be consistent with other helpers
in this file.

Ditto for sched.h.
