On old perf, when using 'perf probe -d' to delete an inexistent event,
it returns 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 returns 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.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
