Added commit 62f52bb "PR12164: Emit kprobes-sdt goo only when needed"

As for the underlying utrace-ptrace problem, we're unlikely to see any action
on it, since this has only been seen on an outdated F12 kernel.  (And F12 is
nearly EOL anyway.)  I'll dig a little in the history to see if there's
something you could backport, but otherwise I'll consider this PR fixed by the
commit above.
