signal: print comm and exe name on fatal signals
Make the print-fatal-signals message more useful by printing the comm
and the exe name for the process which received the fatal signal:
Before:
potentially unexpected fatal signal 4
potentially unexpected fatal signal 11
After:
buggy-program: pool: potentially unexpected fatal signal 4
some-daemon: gdbus: potentially unexpected fatal signal 11
comm used to be present but was removed in commit 681a90ffe829b8ee25d
("arc, print-fatal-signals: reduce duplicated information") because it's
also included as part of the later stack trace. Having the comm as part
of the main "unexpected fatal..." print is rather useful though when
analysing logs, and the exe name is also valuable as shown in the
examples above where the comm ends up having some generic name like
"pool".
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: don't include linux/file.h twice]
