Subject: [PATCH perf/core v2 4/4] perf-probe: Find probe events without target module

Find probe events without -m "module" option. If perf-probe
failed to find given function in kernel image, it tries to
find same symbol and module in kallsyms, and retry search
in the found module. E.g.

  # perf probe -D i915_capabilities
  p:probe/i915_capabilities i915:i915_capabilities+0

Note: without -m option, perf probe can not find inlined
function since there is no symbol information in kallsyms.

  Changes in v2:
   - Fix to remove unneeded zero-return.
   - Remove unneeded debug message.
