[PATCH perf/core] [BUGFIX] perf-probe: Fix to show correct error message for $vars and $params

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Fix to show correct error messages for $vars and $params because
those special variables requires debug information to find the
real variables or function parameters.

E.g. without this fix;
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params
  Failed to write event: Invalid argument
  Please upgrade your kernel to at least 3.14 to have access to feature $params
    Error: Failed to add events.
  ----
Perf ends up with an error, but the message is not correct.
With this fix, perf shows correct error message as below.
  ----
  # perf probe -x /lib64/libc-2.23.so getaddrinfo \$params
  The /usr/lib64/libc-2.23.so file has no debug information.
  Rebuild with -g, or install an appropriate debuginfo package.
    Error: Failed to add events.
