commit f3bed55e850926614b9898fe982f66d2541a36a5 upstream.
Current logic yields the child task as the parent.
Before: $ perf record bash -c "perf list > /dev/null" $ perf script -D |grep 'FORK|EXIT' 4387036190981094 0x5a70 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_FORK(10472:10472):(10470:10470) 4387036606207580 0xf050 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(10472:10472):(10472:10472) 4387036607103839 0x17150 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(10470:10470):(10470:10470) ^ Note the repeated values here -------------------/
After: 383281514043 0x9d8 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_FORK(2268:2268):(2266:2266) 383442003996 0x2180 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(2268:2268):(2266:2266) 383451297778 0xb70 [0x30]: PERF_RECORD_EXIT(2266:2266):(2265:2265)
