Commitsca326e903and1f8c504e3widened the byte-count arguments of smgr__md__read__done and smgr__md__write__done to "long long int". SystemTap's dtrace(1) fails on that specific spelling and falls back with a warning (misreported near the previous probe). Use ssize_t and size_t instead, matching the md.c call sites. Revise probes.d's note about which types are usable as probe arguments: recommend using system-supplied type names (macOS dtrace rejects names like PostgreSQL's uint64), and call out "long long int" as a known SystemTap failure case rather than a wider failure mode. Also, update the monitoring.sgml entries for these probes, which were missed by the prior commits.
