The whitelist test is pretty old, and should probably be removed.  The
stuff in scripts/kprobes_test is much closer to what I think you want,
but of course it doesn't use systemtap, it tests "raw" kprobes.  It
probably wouldn't be that difficult to modify
scripts/kprobes_test/gen_code.py to produce a systemtap module instead
of a "raw" kprobes module.
