Fixes an issue where on the latest release of Ubuntu 20.04 (running a 5.8 kernel), bpf_probe_read_kernel_str would fail to correctly copy data into the data_t struct. Using bpf_probe_read_str works on earlier kernels (including 5.4 in the prior release of Ubuntu 20.04), so I've updated to not use the kernel read variant at all.
