so perf event with attr.inherit=1 attached on task will get inherited
by child process.. the new child event shares the parent's bpf program
and tp_event (hence prog_array) which is global for tracepoint

AFAICS when child process exits the inherited event is destroyed and it
removes related tp_event->prog_array, so the parent event won't trigger
ever again, the test below shows that

  test_tp_attach:FAIL:executed unexpected executed: actual 1 != expected 2

I'm not sure this is problem in practise, because nobody complained
about that ;-)

libbpf does not set attr.inherit=1 and creates system wide perf event,
so no problem there
