I am trying this approach but I think there is one problem with it. When
RTEMS_RECORD_THREAD_SWITCH_IN event is received then there is no way to
receive it's next_* values.

e.g.

ab //RTEMS_RECORD_THREAD_SWITCH_OUT
bc //RTEMS_RECORD_THREAD_STACK_CURRENT
cd //RTEMS_RECORD_THREAD_SWITCH_IN

Think this example as output in babeltrace where first character is of
prev_comm value and second character is of next_comm value. Since we will
be writing just after receiving c(third row) we can't get d values.

For this, we should have d value so that we can write it in
RTEMS_RECORD_THREAD_SWITCH_IN event with next_comm value.
