[Bug runtime/2511] New: Transport Changes needed for kernel >= 2.6.17.*

[liangss at cn dot ibm dot com]

kernel: 2.6.17-rc1
machine: ppc64
systemtap: snapshot 20060401

When I run the systemtap , error message was printed:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pass 5: starting run.
Running sudo /usr/local/libexec/systemtap/stpd -u root -d 
9788 /tmp/stap9RBcE4/stap_9788.ko
mount: fs type relayfs not supported by kernel
/usr/local/autobench/sources/tracetool/systemtap/libexec/systemtap/stp_check:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I found it is due to relayfs as a stand-alone filesystem is gone, to be 
replaced with the ability to use relayfs files from within sysfs. You can 
refer to http://lwn.net/Articles/174592/

Now, relayfs is gone, and all check about relayfs in systemtap should be 
modified.
