This TASK_COMM_LEN_16 has the same meaning with the macro defined in
linux/sched.h, but we can't include linux/sched.h in a UAPI header, so
we should specifically define it in the cn_proc.h.

Hi,

Since this is added to UAPI header, maybe you could make it a single
instance also used elsewhere? Even though this is constant and not
going to change I don't really like multiplying the sources of truth.

Best Regards

Hmm, what about defining it in include/uapi/linux/sched.h ?
Then include "sched.h" in cn_proc.h
And we also define it in tools/include/uapi/linux/sched.h for the
usage in tools.
