Working for some binaries and not working for others. On some digging, I 
think, this patchset doesn't take care of the offset sign. So, when we 
try to probe with these patches applied :

# ./perf probe -x /lib64/libpthread.so.0 sdt_libpthread:pthread_start

Failed to write event: Invalid argument
   Error: Failed to add events.

With -v, the string to be written in uprobe_events is shown as :
...
Writing event: p:sdt_libpthread/pthread_start 
/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.23.so:0x75b8 arg0=%ax:u64 arg1=1600(%ax):u64 
arg2=1608(%ax):u64
...

The offsets mentioned in the string, for e.g., arg1=1600(%ax):u64 (to be 
written into the uprobe_events file don't have any sign. That is the 
issue here, i.e, we need to have a sign before the offsets.

This works fine :

# echo "p:sdt_libpthread/pthread_start 
/usr/lib64/libpthread-2.23.so:0x75b8 arg0=%ax:u64 arg1=+1600(%ax):u64 
arg2=+1608(%ax):u64" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events

For the negative offsets, i.e., '-' sign before the offsets, this works 
fine because, it takes the sign as is.

So, we need to explicitly mention the offset sign.
