Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] selftests/ftrace: Save kprobe_events to test log

It may lead to kernel panic when execute the following testcase on mips:

  # cd tools/testing/selftests/ftrace
  # ./ftracetest test.d/kprobe/multiple_kprobes.tc

A preliminary analysis shows that the issue is related with

  echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable

after add the 256 probe points.

In order to find the root cause, I want to verify which probe point has
problem, so it is necessary to save kprobe_events to test log.

With this patch, we can get the 256 probe points in the test log through
the following command:

  # ./ftracetest test.d/kprobe/multiple_kprobes.tc -vvv -k
