OK, I've confirmed it. This bug also affects -D option for
offline probes...

$ ./perf probe -k ~/kbin/linux.x86_64/vmlinux -vD vfs_read:11
probe-definition(0): vfs_read:11
[...]
Try to find probe point from debuginfo.
Matched function: vfs_read [28b211e]
Probe point found: vfs_read+90  <- here vfs_read+90
Found 1 probe_trace_events.
p:probe/vfs_read vfs_read+180   <- here vfs_read+180 = 90+90

So offset to be doubled...

Arnaldo, this should go to urgent/stable. 

Thank you!
