I can't claim expertise here, but it seems that the 'io:::done' probe 
can receive a 'struct bio' where 'bio_disk' is NULL. So a first thought 
would be to have a predicate like:

/args[0] && args[0]->bio_disk && ts[...]/

I don't know under what circumstances bio_disk is NULL; would require 
some digging to find out. Someone more familiar with this area may have 
a better suggestion.
