[PATCH v2] perf probe: Return errno when does not hit any event

[Kefeng Wang]

On old perf, when using perf probe -d to delete an inexistent event,
it return errno, eg,

-bash-4.3# perf probe -d xxx  || echo $?
Info: Event "*:xxx" does not exist.
  Error: Failed to delete events.
255

But now perf_del_probe_events() will always set ret = 0, different
from previous del_perf_probe_events(). After this, it return errno
again, eg,

-bash-4.3# ./perf probe -d xxx  || echo $?
"xxx" does not hit any event.
  Error: Failed to delete events.
254

And it is more appropriate to return -ENOENT instead of -EPERM.
