perf probe: Improve error message when %return is on inlined function
perf probe shows more precisely message when it finds given %return target function is inlined. Without this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -V getname_flags%return Return probe must be on the head of a real function. Debuginfo analysis failed. Error: Failed to show vars. ---- With this fix: ---- # ./perf probe -V getname_flags%return Failed to find "getname_flags%return", because getname_flags is an inlined function and has no return point. Debuginfo analysis failed. Error: Failed to show vars. ---- Suggested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Tested-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20150930164137.3733.55055.stgit@localhost.localdomain Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
