Just by way of illustration, this is systemtap fixed up according to
suggestion number 1. You can see now using your test case that we get:
# probes
kernel.function("do_open@fs/block_dev.c:929") /* pc=<lookup_bdev+0x90> */ /* <- kernel.function("do_open") */
kernel.function("do_open@fs/nfsctl.c:24") /* pc=<sys_nfsservctl+0x6a> */ /* <- kernel.function("do_open") */
kernel.function("do_open@ipc/mqueue.c:642") /* pc=<sys_mq_unlink+0x130> */ /* <- kernel.function("do_open") */
