3.16.82-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit eb6933b29d20bf2c3053883d409a53f462c1a3ac upstream.

Fix perf probe to probe an inlne function which has no entry pc
or low pc but only has ranges attribute.

This seems very rare case, but I could find a few examples, as
same as probe_point_search_cb(), use die_entrypc() to get the
entry address in probe_point_inline_cb() too.

Without this patch:

# perf probe -D __amd_put_nb_event_constraints
Failed to get entry address of __amd_put_nb_event_constraints.
Probe point '__amd_put_nb_event_constraints' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.

With this patch:

# perf probe -D __amd_put_nb_event_constraints
p:probe/__amd_put_nb_event_constraints amd_put_event_constraints+43

Committer testing:

Before:

[root@quaco ~]# perf probe -D __amd_put_nb_event_constraints
Failed to get entry address of __amd_put_nb_event_constraints.
Probe point '__amd_put_nb_event_constraints' not found.
Error: Failed to add events.
[root@quaco ~]#

After:

[root@quaco ~]# perf probe -D __amd_put_nb_event_constraints
p:probe/__amd_put_nb_event_constraints _text+33789
[root@quaco ~]#
