I can be done, then thread->comm_changed moves to thread_runtime->comm_changed.
Draft code as below. It is also a little tricky.

+int perf_sched__process_comm(struct perf_tool *tool __maybe_unused,
+                            union perf_event *event,

+{
+       struct thread *thread;
+       struct thread_runtime *r;
+
+       perf_event__process_comm(tool, event, sample, machine);
+
+       thread = machine__findnew_thread(machine, pid, tid);
+       if (thread) {
+               r = thread__priv(thread);
+               if (r)
+                       r->comm_changed = true;
+               thread__put(thread);
+       }
+}

But I'd keep 'comm_changed' where 'shortname' is defined. I think they should appears
togother. And 'shortname' is only used by sched command, too.

So I still prefer my privous simpler change. Thanks!
