SystemTap script compilation fails to recognize the kernel.xxx probes - linux-kernel

Question

I'm running SystemTap on ArchLinux 4.7.4-1, with the rebuilt kernel as instructed on ArchLinux Wiki. The version of SystemTap is:
$ stap -V
Systemtap translator/driver (version 3.0/0.167, non-git sources)

$ uname -a
Linux eva-dummy 4.7.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Sep 25 14:32:13 EDT 2016 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I have the SystemTap script:
#!/usr/bin/stap
probe kernel.function("*#net/socket.c").call
{
printf ("%s -> %s\n", thread_indent(1), probefunc())
}
probe kernel.function("*#net/socket.c").return
{
printf ("%s <- %s\n", thread_indent(-1), probefunc())
}
The output of running with -vvv option is:
$ stap -vvv hello-world.stp

It seems that SystemTap cannot recognize the kernel.xxxx probes. How to make the script run successfully on ArchLinux?
