perf probe: Clear probe_trace_event when add_probe_trace_event() fails
When probing with a glob, errors in add_probe_trace_event() won't be
passed to debuginfo__find_trace_events() because it would be modified by
probe_point_search_cb(). It causes a segfault if perf fails to find an
argument for a probe point matched by the glob. For example:
# ./perf probe -v -n 'SyS_dup? oldfd'
probe-definition(0): SyS_dup? oldfd
symbol:SyS_dup? file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
parsing arg: oldfd into oldfd
1 arguments

Using /lib/modules/4.3.0-rc4+/build/vmlinux for symbols

#
This patch ensures that add_probe_trace_event() doesn't touches
tf->ntevs and tf->tevs if those functions fail.
After the patch:
# perf probe 'SyS_dup? oldfd'
Failed to find 'oldfd' in this function.
Added new events:
probe:SyS_dup3 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd)
probe:SyS_dup3_1 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd)
probe:SyS_dup2 (on SyS_dup? with oldfd)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:SyS_dup2 -aR sleep 1
