Subject: [PATCH] uprobes: fix return value in error handling path

When I inject incorrect argument into uprobe_events,

[root@jovi tracing]# echo 'p:myprobe /bin/bash' > uprobe_events
[root@jovi tracing]#

it doesn't return any error value in there, this patch fix it.

Srikar,

Can you give an Ack (or nack) for this?

Thanks,
