Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] perf-probe: Cut off the version suffix from event name

Cut off the version suffix (e.g. @GLIBC_2.2.5 etc.) from
automatic generated event name. This fixes wildcard event
adding like below case;

  =====
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc*
  Internal error: "malloc_get_state@...BC_2" is wrong event name.
    Error: Failed to add events.
  =====

This failure was caused by a versioned suffix symbol.
With this fix, perf probe automatically cuts the
suffix after @ as below.

  =====
  # ./perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.25.so malloc*
  Added new events:
    probe_libc:malloc_printerr (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_consolidate (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_check (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_hook_ini (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc    (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_trim (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_usable_size (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_stats (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_info (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:mallochook (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_get_state (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)
    probe_libc:malloc_set_state (on malloc* in /usr/lib64/libc-2.25.so)

  You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:

	  perf record -e probe_libc:malloc_set_state -aR sleep 1
