perf/ftrace: Fix double traces of perf on ftrace:function

When running perf on the ftrace:function tracepoint, there is a bug
which can be reproduced by:

  perf record -e ftrace:function -a sleep 20 &
  perf record -e ftrace:function ls
  perf script

              ls 10304 [005]   171.853235: ftrace:function:
  perf_output_begin
              ls 10304 [005]   171.853237: ftrace:function:
  perf_output_begin
              ls 10304 [005]   171.853239: ftrace:function:
  task_tgid_nr_ns
              ls 10304 [005]   171.853240: ftrace:function:
  task_tgid_nr_ns
              ls 10304 [005]   171.853242: ftrace:function:
  __task_pid_nr_ns
              ls 10304 [005]   171.853244: ftrace:function:
  __task_pid_nr_ns

We can see that all the function traces are doubled.

The problem is caused by the inconsistency of the register
function perf_ftrace_event_register() with the probe function
perf_ftrace_function_call(). The former registers one probe
for every perf_event. And the latter handles all perf_events
on the current cpu. So when two perf_events on the current cpu,
the traces of them will be doubled.

So this patch adds an extra parameter "event" for perf_tp_event,
only send sample data to this event when it's not NULL.
