This must be done in call-site, since we don't need it clearly
in below case.

/* Try to find perf_probe_event with debuginfo */
static int try_to_find_probe_trace_events(struct perf_probe_event *pev,
                                          struct probe_trace_event **tevs)
{
        bool need_dwarf = perf_probe_event_need_dwarf(pev);
        struct perf_probe_point tmp;
        struct debuginfo *dinfo;
        int ntevs, ret = 0;

        dinfo = open_debuginfo(pev->target, pev->nsi, !need_dwarf);
