Also, I made the links
```
    /usr/lib/debug.dwz/kernel-4.9.70-1.el7.centos.x86_64 ->
/usr/lib/debug.dwz/kernel-lt-4.9.70-1.el7.centos.x86_64
    /usr/src/debug/kernel-4.9.70 -> /usr/src/debug/kernel-lt-4.9.70
    /etc/ld.so.conf.d/kernel-4.9.70-1.el7.centos.x86_64.conf ->
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/kernel-/t-4.9.70-1.el7.centos.x86_64.conf
```
and that hasn't fixed it, but I haven't tried rebooting or reinstalling stap
yet, if you think that'd help. I can't see how it would tbh, which is why I
haven't done it yet, but clearly I have no idea what I'm doing so.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
