Tero Kristo 2ebe231aba trace/hwlat: Do not start per-cpu thread if it is already running
[ Upstream commit 08697bca9b ]

The hwlatd tracer will end up starting multiple per-cpu threads with
the following script:

    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
    echo 0 > tracing_on
    echo hwlat > current_tracer
    echo per-cpu > hwlat_detector/mode
    echo 100000 > hwlat_detector/width
    echo 200000 > hwlat_detector/window
    echo 1 > tracing_on

To fix the issue, check if the hwlatd thread for the cpu is already
running, before starting a new one. Along with the previous patch, this
avoids running multiple instances of the same CPU thread on the system.
