I took a short look at this patch.  Besides the testsuite changes, it looks like
there is also an actual s390 syscall tapset change in there.

I'm a bit confused by the changes to systemtap.base/stmtvars.exp and
systemtap.base/system_func.stp.  Instead of changing
'kernel.function("sys_open")' to 'syscall.open', you changed it to
'kernel.function("do_sys_open")'.  Why was this done?

Other than those points, I guess I'm a bit worried that syscall tapset bugs are
going to cause lots of (somewhat unrelated) testsuite failures.  But, I don't
see any easier solution to this problem.
