Subject: [PATCH] perf probe: Ignore tail calls to probed functions
perf probe currently errors out if there are any tail calls to probed
functions:
[root@...l71be]# perf probe do_fork
Failed to find probe point in any functions.
Error: Failed to add events.
Fix this by teaching perf to ignore tail calls.

I'm seeing this with RHEL7 kernels on ppc64. The specific example in this case is do_fork:
