Masami Hiramatsu dee36a2abb perf probe: Skip overlapped location on searching variables
Since debuginfo__find_probes() callback function can be called with  the
location which already passed, the callback function must filter out
such overlapped locations.

add_probe_trace_event() has already done it by commit 1a375ae765
("perf probe: Skip same probe address for a given line"), but
add_available_vars() doesn't. Thus perf probe -v shows same address
repeatedly as below:

  # perf probe -V vfs_read:18
  Available variables at vfs_read:18
          @<vfs_read+217>
                  char*   buf
                  loff_t* pos
                  ssize_t ret
                  struct file*    file
          @<vfs_read+217>
                  char*   buf
                  loff_t* pos
                  ssize_t ret
                  struct file*    file
          @<vfs_read+226>
                  char*   buf
                  loff_t* pos
                  ssize_t ret
                  struct file*    file

With this fix, perf probe -V shows it correctly:

  # perf probe -V vfs_read:18
  Available variables at vfs_read:18
          @<vfs_read+217>
                  char*   buf
                  loff_t* pos
                  ssize_t ret
                  struct file*    file
          @<vfs_read+226>
                  char*   buf
                  loff_t* pos
                  ssize_t ret
                  struct file*    file

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
