    sched/tracing: Append prev_state to tp args instead

    Commit fa2c3254d7cf (sched/tracing: Don't re-read p->state when emitting
    sched_switch event, 2022-01-20) added a new prev_state argument to the
    sched_switch tracepoint, before the prev task_struct pointer.

    This reordering of arguments broke BPF programs that use the raw
    tracepoint (e.g. tp_btf programs). The type of the second argument has
    changed and existing programs that assume a task_struct* argument
    (e.g. for bpf_task_storage access) will now fail to verify.

    If we instead append the new argument to the end, all existing programs
    would continue to work and can conditionally extract the prev_state
    argument on supported kernel versions.
