This change causes my tests to fail:

++ echo 'Test command: p vfs_read arg1="abcd'
Test command: p vfs_read arg1="abcd
++ echo
++ grep 'trace_kprobe: error:' -A 3 error_log
[61913.240093] trace_kprobe: error: Invalid fetch argument
  Command: p vfs_read arg1="abcd
                           ^
+++ tail -n 1 error_log
+++ wc -c
++ N=29
+++ expr 13 + 21
++ test 34 -eq 29
