We know of some problems with inline functions and argument
resolution, specifically with respect to debug information quality.
Some of these have been improved with later versions of gcc.  Until
your situation gets fully diagnosed, a workaround may be to modify
blktrace to take away the inline declaration and probe kernel.function
instead.

BTW, there is no need for -g for this script.
