Subject: [PATCH 4/5] perf tests: Fix record+probe_libc_inet_pton.sh to ensure cleanups

If there is a mismatch in the perf script output, this test fails
and exits before the event and temporary files created during its
execution are cleaned up.

This can be observed on a powerpc64 system running Fedora 27 as
shown below.

  # perf test -v "probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping"

  62: probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping       :

  probe libc's inet_pton & backtrace it with ping: FAILED!

  # ls /tmp/expected.* /tmp/perf.data.* /tmp/perf.script.*

  # perf probe --list

    probe_libc:inet_pton (on __inet_pton@...olv/inet_pton.c in /usr/lib64/power8/libc-2.26.so)

Cleanup of the event and the temporary files are now ensured by
allowing the cleanup code to be executed even if the lines from
the backtrace do not match their expected patterns instead of
simply exiting from the point of failure.
