perf probe: Fix list result when symbol can't be found
'perf probe -l' reports error if it is unable find symbol through
address. Here is an example.
# echo 'p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x5' >
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events
p:probe_libc/abs_5 /lib64/libc.so.6:0x0000000000000005
# perf probe -l
Error: Failed to show event list
Also, this situation triggers a logical inconsistency in
convert_to_perf_probe_point() that, it returns ENOMEM but actually it
never try strdup().
This patch removes !tp->module && !is_kprobe condition, so it always
uses address to build function name if symbol not found.
Test result:
# perf probe -l
probe_libc:abs_5 (on 0x5 in /lib64/libc.so.6)
