stm class: Rework policy node fallback Currently, if no matching policy node can be found for a trace source, we'll try to use "default" policy node, then, if that doesn't exist, we'll pick the first node, in order of creation. If that also fails, we'll allocate M/C range from the beginning of the device's M/C range. This makes it difficult to know which node (if any) was used in any particular case. In order to make things more deterministic, the new order is as follows: * if they supply ID string, use that and nothing else, * if they are a task, use their task name (comm), * use "default", if it exists, * return failure, to let them know there is no suitable rule. This should provide enough convenience with the "default" catch-all node, while not leaving *everything* to chance. As a side effect, this relaxes the requirement of using ioctl() for identification with the possibility of using task names as policy nodes.
