[PATCH 8/8] tools/lib/traceevent: remove call to exit() from tep_filter_add_filter_str()

From: Tzvetomir Stoyanov

This patch removes call to exit() from tep_filter_add_filter_str(). A library
function should not force the application to exit. In the current implementation
tep_filter_add_filter_str() calls exit() when a special "test_filters" mode is
set, used only for debugging purposes. When this mode is set and a filter is
added - its string is printed to the console and exit() is called. This patch
changes the logic - when in "test_filters" mode, the filter string is still
printed, but the exit() is not called. It is up to the application to track when
"test_filters" mode is set and to call exit, if needed.
