The problem here is that while some of these routines are blacklisted
in the kernel (kprobe_register will fail), they are not blacklisted in
the translator.  We need to teach the translator to look for the
kernel-side blacklist info too (the .kprobes section naming methinks),
and treat it similarly to the .init/.exit special cases already
present in tapsets.cxx.

This way, function("*") will quietly exclude the blacklisted functions.
