In runtime/perf.c, it should be a straightforward thing to
detect that we're running in target-process mode (stap -c/-x),
and interpret that as a request to bind the perf.* events
only to that process.  (One would pass a -1 cpu and a proper
pid number to perf_event_create_kernel_counter.)

OTOH, this could be an option at the probe point level, as in
probe process(NNN).perf.* ?
