Hi Randy,

I got this when building my markers (which looks alike your kprobes):

ld: samples/built-in.o: No such file: No such file or directory
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

And the Makefile from samples does not seem to be executed. And why is
there a Kbuild file in your first patch ?

Mathieu
