Subject: [PATCH] selftests/kprobe: Do not test for GRP/ without event
 failures

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>

A new feature is added where kprobes (and other probes) do not need to
explicitly state the event name when creating a probe. The event name will
come from what is being attached.

That is:

  # echo 'p:foo/ vfs_read' > kprobe_events

Will no longer error, but instead create an event:

  # cat kprobe_events
 p:foo/p_vfs_read_0 vfs_read

This should not be tested as an error case anymore. Remove it from the
selftest as now this feature "breaks" the selftest as it no longer fails
as expected.
