In this call:
(*__mark_##name.call) \
(&__mark_##name, call_private, \
format, ## args); \
you make gcc allocate duplicate format string. You can use
&__mstrtab_##name[sizeof(#name)] instead since it holds the same string,
or drop ", format," above and "const char *fmt" from here:
void (*call)(const struct marker *mdata, /* Probe wrapper */
void *call_private, const char *fmt, ...);
since mdata->format is the same and all callees which need it can take it there.
