Updated examples

Updated examples

[David Smith]

While working on an update to the way systemtap's runtime handles mm
structs I had to do some regression testing. While doing that, I
realized the example scripts could use some help working on newer kernels.

I've finished this work, and here's a report. In general, the examples
are working much better and have better kernel coverage.

So, if you've wished a particular example worked on your kernel, there
is a much better chance now that it does. If an example still doesn't
work for you, let me know and I'll take a look at it.


RHEL5 (2.6.18-398.el5.x86_64)
=============================

2.9:
# of expected passes            275
# of unexpected failures        5
# of untested testcases         20

current:
# of expected passes            278
# of unexpected failures        3
# of untested testcases         18

So, 3 extra passes, 2 less failures, 2 less untested

RHEL6 (2.6.32-573.el6.x86_64)
=============================

2.9:
# of expected passes            292
# of unexpected failures        4
# of untested testcases         14

current:
# of expected passes            305
# of untested testcases         8

So, 13 extra passes, 4 less failures, and 6 less untested

RHEL7 (3.10.0-325.el7.x86_64)
=============================

2.9:
# of expected passes            294
# of unexpected failures        2
# of untested testcases         12

current:
# of expected passes            311
# of untested testcases         6

So, 17 extra passes, 2 less failures, and 6 less untested

Fedora 22 (4.2.3-200.fc22.x86_64)
=================================

2.9:
# of expected passes		282
# of unexpected failures	3
# of untested testcases		17

current:
# of expected passes		309
# of unexpected failures	1
# of untested testcases		7

So, 27 extra passes, 2 less failures, and 10 less untested

Fedora Rawhide (4.3.0-0.rc6.git2.1.fc24.x86_64)
===============================================

2.9:
# of expected passes            279
# of unexpected failures        5
# of untested testcases         18

current:
# of expected passes            308
# of unexpected failures        2
# of untested testcases         7

So, 29 extra passes, 3 less failures, and 11 less untested
