SystemTap should be in the mainline kernel, because it's just so extremely useful when doing everyday kernel tracing and kernel debugging. The moment it's in the mainline kernel we wont need source-intrusive tracing frameworks anymore. (this means we can remove lots of debug cruft from the existing kernel tree, and we wont need to add new tracing cruft either.)
