I'd suggest to not put a probe into a preempt-off section - put it to 
the beginning and to the end of schedule() to capture context-switches. 
_stp_print_flush() is in the systemtap-generated module, right? Maybe 
the problem is resolved by changing that spinlock to use raw_spinlock_t 
/ DEFINE_RAW_SPIN_LOCK.
