I think you'd better use -x for abbr. of --exe, since -e is used for --event
for other subcommands.

And also, it seems this kind of patch should be placed after perf-probe
uprobe support patch, because without uprobe support, user binary analysis
is meaningless. (In the result, this introduces -u/--uprobe option without
uprobe support)

I also can't understand why -u is required even if we have -x for user
binaries and -m for kernel modules.
