Add prototypes for using the 2.6.26 probe_kernel_* functions.
For now, the autoconf for the new code is disabled, because it shows poorer performance than our existing dereferencing functions. This is probably because ours get inlined and optimized. The code is being committed so that we may re-evaluate its usefulness in the future. This addresses bugzilla 6432.
