[PATCH perf/core 0/8] perf-probe bugfixes and support wildcard for probe points

[Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com>]

Hi,

Here is a series of bugfix patches and improvements for perf-probe.
First 5 patches are new for fixing some minor issues on perf probe,
and last 3 are for wildcard support which is just updates of the
patches which I sent before ( https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/31/207 ).

I've dropped --output option since it will be done by perf-cache,
but this series doesn't involve perf-cache feature yet. I found some
issues when working on that and decided to send it beforehand.

Thank you,
