I think this function can be made into a helper that can be used in
other programs. Which is basically same as 'read_trace_pipe' and
also writes the content of that pipe to file either. Well, it's not used
anywhere else, but I moved this function for the potential of reuse.

Since these 'read_trace_pipe's are helpers that are only used
under samples directory, what do you think about moving these
helpers to something like samples/bpf/trace_pipe.h?

Thanks for your time and effort for the review.
