perf probe: Fix list result when address is zero
When manually added uprobe point with zero address, 'perf probe -l' reports error. For example: # echo p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x0 arg1=%ax > \ /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events # perf probe -l Error: Failed to show event list. Probing at 0x0 is possible and useful when lib.bin is not a normal shared object but is manually mapped. However, in this case kernel report: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events p:probe_libc/abs_0 /path/to/lib.bin:0x (null) arg1=%ax This patch supports the above kernel output.
