Thanks! this probably should go to stable.
I take that back. This patch can cause a buffer overflow access.

If you looked at the line after this check, you would see:

        if (pid > PID_MAX_DEFAULT) {
                strcpy(comm, "<...>");
                return;
        }

        map = savedcmd->map_pid_to_cmdline[pid];

And if you looked to see what map_pid_to_cmdline is:

struct saved_cmdlines_buffer {
        unsigned map_pid_to_cmdline[PID_MAX_DEFAULT+1];

Your patch will access memory past the end of that array, and cause a
bug.

If you want to support more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT, a lot more needs to
change than this. And a change like this isn't going to go to stable.

What you can do is make that map_pid_to_cmdline array bigger.

I am sorry about it, and as the number of cpu cores increases, the current

PID_MAX_DEFAULT is too small, our online machines set the pid_max 65536 as 
default, so the task
pid number bigger than PID_MAX_DEFAULT can't show the real comm (only <...>), 
so i want to
ajust the PID_MAX_DEFAULT upto 4x, and what do you think?

  * This controls the default maximum pid allocated to a process

-#define PID_MAX_DEFAULT (CONFIG_BASE_SMALL ? 0x1000 : 0x8000)
+#define PID_MAX_DEFAULT (CONFIG_BASE_SMALL ? 0x1000 : 0x20000)
