tracing: Treat recording comm for idle task as a success
commit eaf260ac04d9b4cf9f458d5c97555bfff2da526e upstream. Currently we stop recording comm for non-idle tasks when switching from/to idle task since we treat that as a record failure. Fix that by treat recording of comm for idle task as a success.
