It is better to use get_task_comm() instead of the open coded string
copy as we do in other places.

struct elf_prpsinfo is used to dump the task information in userspace
coredump or kernel vmcore.  Below is the verification of vmcore,

It works well as expected.

Some comments are added to explain why we use the hard-coded 16.
