[PATCH v1 3/3] perf trace: Fix perf trace -p <PID>

[Howard Chu]

perf trace -p <PID> doesn't work on a syscall that's augmented(when it
calls perf_event_output() in BPF). However, it does work when the
syscall is unaugmented.

Let's take open() as an example. open() is augmented in perf trace.

Before:
```
perf $ perf trace -e open -p 3792392
         ? (         ):  ... [continued]: open())                                             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
         ? (         ):  ... [continued]: open())                                             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
```

We can see there's no output.

After:
```
perf $ perf trace -e open -p 3792392
     0.000 ( 0.123 ms): a.out/3792392 open(filename: "DINGZHEN", flags: WRONLY)                             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
  1000.398 ( 0.116 ms): a.out/3792392 open(filename: "DINGZHEN", flags: WRONLY)                             = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
```

Reason:

bpf_perf_event_output() will fail when you specify a pid in perf trace.

When using perf trace -p 114, before perf_event_open(), we'll have PID
= 114, and CPU = -1.

This is bad for bpf-output event, because it doesn't accept output from
BPF's perf_event_output(), making it fail.

What is ideal is to make the PID = -1, everytime we need to open a
bpf-output event. But PID = -1, and CPU = -1 is illegal.

So we have to open bpf-output for every cpu, that is:
PID = -1, CPU = 0
PID = -1, CPU = 1
PID = -1, CPU = 2
PID = -1, CPU = 3
...

This patch does just that.

You can test it with this script:
```
 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/syscall.h>

int main()
{
	int i1 = 1, i2 = 2, i3 = 3, i4 = 4;
	char s1[] = "DINGZHEN", s2[] = "XUEBAO";

	while (1) {
		syscall(SYS_open, s1, i1, i2);
		sleep(1);
	}

	return 0;
}
```

save, compile, run, get the pid
```
gcc open.c

./a.out

 # in a different window
ps aux | grep a.out
```

perf trace
```
perf trace -p <PID-You-just-got> -e open
```

!!Note that perf trace <Workload> is a little broken after this pid
fix, so you can't do 'perf trace -e open ./a.out', please get pid by
hand.
