perf probe: Support glob wildcards for function name
Support glob wildcards for function name when adding new probes. This
will allow us to build caches of function-entry level information with
$params.
e.g.
----
# perf probe --no-inlines --add 'kmalloc* $params'
Added new events:
probe:kmalloc_slab (on kmalloc* with $params)
probe:kmalloc_large_node (on kmalloc* with $params)
probe:kmalloc_order_trace (on kmalloc* with $params)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:kmalloc_order_trace -aR sleep 1
# perf probe --list
probe:kmalloc_large_node (on kmalloc_large_node@mm/slub.c with size flags node)
probe:kmalloc_order_trace (on kmalloc_order_trace@mm/slub.c with size flags order)
probe:kmalloc_slab (on kmalloc_slab@mm/slab_common.c with size flags)
