From: Namhyung Kim <[email protected]> Sometimes samples have tid of 0 but non-0 pid. It ends up having a new thread of 0 tid/pid (instead of referring idle task) since tid is used to search matching task. But I guess it's wrong to use 0 as a tid when pid is set. This patch uses tid only if it has a non-zero value or same as pid (of 0).
