To call convert_variable, it ensures "ret" is 0. However, since "ret" has the return value of synthesize_perf_probe_arg() which always returns positive value if it succeeded, perf probe doesn't call convert_variable(). This will cause a SEGV when we add an event with arguments. This has to be fixed as it ensures "ret" is greater than 0 (or not negative). This regression has been introduced by my previous patch, f182e3e1.
