Oops, that's wrong. Of course my patch can ease (avoid kernel panic) the
issue, but not fixing the root cause.
The root cause is that the uprobe event tries to open multiple probes with
one perf_event. So the perf_event is reused on different probes.
In the reported case, if we remove the multiple probe event before perf-stat,
no problem happens.
I'll try to fix it.
Thank you,
