perf probe: Change probe-added message more user-friendly
Change probe-added message more user-friendly expression and show usage of new events. Before: Added new event: p:probe/schedule_0 schedule+10 prev=%ax cpu=%bx After: Added new event: probe:schedule_1 (on schedule+1 with prev cpu) You can now use it on all perf tools, such as: perf record -e probe:schedule_1 -a sleep 1 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Jim Keniston <jkenisto@us.ibm.com> Cc: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@infradead.org> Cc: Frank Ch.
