So we look at a variety of files looking for one that has a matching
build-id, I think the warning message should state that the file with
the unmatched build-id is simply being skipped, no?

And why do this at 'perf probe -l' time? I.e. at that point whatever
probes that are in place already have all the needed debug info?

I.e. the warning should be done at probe creation time only?
