The solution is ported from bcc/src/cc/libbpf.c:bpf_try_perf_event_open_with_probe

Kernel API with e12f03d ("perf/core: Implement the 'perf_kprobe' PMU") allows
creating [k,u]probe with perf_event_open, which makes it easier to clean up
the [k,u]probe. This function tries to create pfd with the perf_kprobe PMU.
