perf tools: Fix tracing_path_mount proper path
If there's no tracefs (RHEL7) support the tracing_path_mount
returns debugfs path which results in following fail:
# perf probe sys_write
kprobe_events file does not exist - please rebuild kernel with CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS.
Error: Failed to add events.
In tracing_path_debugfs_mount function we need to return the
'tracing' path instead of just the mount to make it work:
# perf probe sys_write
Added new event:
probe:sys_write (on sys_write)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_write -aR sleep 1
Adding the 'return tracing_path;' also to tracing_path_tracefs_mount
function just for consistency with tracing_path_debugfs_mount.
Upstream keeps working, because it has the tracefs support.
