Is find_var() really needed?  I guess find_var_field() could do the
job with lower overhead..

Also it doesn't need to iterate the loop when system and event name is
given.  Please see below

How about this?

find_var_file()
{
	if (system)
		return find_event_file(tr, system, event);

	list_for_each_entry(var_data, &tr->hist_vars, list) {
		var_hist_data = var_data->hist_data;
		file = var_hist_data->event_file;
		if (file == found)
			continue;

		if (find_var_field(var_hist_data, var_name)) {
			if (found)
				return NULL;
			
			found = file;
		}
	}
}
