[PATCH 1/2] tracing: Return -ENOENT if there is no target synthetic event

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Return -ENOENT error if there is no target synthetic event.
This notices an operation failure to user as below;

  # echo 'wakeup_latency u64 lat; pid_t pid;' > synthetic_events
  # echo '!wakeup' >> synthetic_events
  sh: write error: No such file or directory
