Thanks to Josh for looking into this in more detail.  I only have the
general observation that this patchset would be desirable in mainline
stap, but only if it is tested by at least the whole testsuite (rather
than just those two samples) on your -rt kernel, *and* if the patched
code also runs the whole testsuite on a non-rt kernel.  (We don't
expect 100% PASS, but also no smoke attributable to the patches.)
