No, that is not supported yet. So I dropped perf-list support from
the latest series...

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/7/1/133

The unresolved problems are
- how we treat sdt events after recorded? remove or leave it as tracepoint?
- what should be done if we found the tracepoint which has same name of the
SDT. (we can not reserve tracepoint name beforehand)
- Sometimes SDT name can be conflict, even on same binary.
