Hi -

Within a tapset snippet, code can use
   @const("IO_CMD_PREADV")
referring to an identifier in embedded-C scope.

If the IO_CMD_PREADV identifier were an enum value that shows up in
DWARF, then $IO_CMD_PREADV can resolve in recent versions of stap.

If none of the above, yeah, use the global gadget.
