Agreed that the test should be runnable on arm64. I haven't tested there
yet but I'll do that before sending out v4.

As written, the example actually modifies the return of write(), so I
don't think I can switch to tp/syscalls/* without significantly
reworking the example. To minimize the amount of reworking while
improving compatibility, how does this sound:

1. Add #ifdefs to support arm64
2. Instead of opening /tmp/map_trace_test_file, open /dev/null

Of course this isn't as portable as your proposal but I think it might
be an acceptable compromise.

Best,
Joe
