Maybe we need to remember cleanup the kprobe_events in debugfs?

the real tracing tool should be cleaning it up. This is sample code.
I didn't want to overcomplicate it with a chain of ctrl-c handlers.
Notice patch 7 is simply doing signal(SIGINT, int_exit) and prints
histogram when process is terminated. The kprobe cleaning logic would
have interfere with this and overall would have made these samples
unnecessary complex.
