Various helpers to write kprobes in C, instead of the funky limited
functionality scripting language of the day.
But anyway, if systemtap folks really need a relayfs filesystem type

recreate relayfs ontop of kernel/relay.c and include it in their codebase,
no need to bloat the kernel tree with unused code.
