[DTrace-devel] [PATCH v2] test: account for member name change in mm_struct

The flexible array at the end of the mm_struct has changed name in newer
kernels. Rather than depending on a particular name, we can simply get
the name of the last member (since that is there the flexible array is
always found) and try to use that.
