I tried your selftest with gcc14 and llvm20 in my environment. See below:

llvm20:
Displaying notes found in: .note.stapsdt
   Owner                Data size        Description
   stapsdt              0x0000002f       NT_STAPSDT (SystemTap probe descriptors)
     Provider: test
     Name: usdt1
     Location: 0x00000000000003ac, Base: 0x0000000000000000, Semaphore: 0x0000000000000000
     Arguments: 8@-64(%rbp)

gcc14:
Displaying notes found in: .note.stapsdt
   Owner                Data size        Description
   stapsdt              0x00000034       NT_STAPSDT (SystemTap probe descriptors)
     Provider: test
     Name: usdt1
     Location: 0x0000000000000334, Base: 0x0000000000000000, Semaphore: 0x0000000000000000
     Arguments: 8@array(,%rax,8)

llvm20 and gcc14 generate different usdt patterns. '8@-64(%rbp)' already supports so
with SIB support, the test should pass CI, I think.
