[Bug runtime/6998] probefunc returns hex addresses for timer and profile probes rather than function name

It seems like a sensible default, thanks!

If the script makes no reference to other object code (module/process probe),
one can use the "stap -d" option to add any kernel modules and also any
user-space shared libraries/programs whose detailed profile may be required.

(Even successful lobbying lkml to un-un-export kallayms* would do nothing
to help userspace.)
