perf test probe_vfs_getname: Add regex for searching probe line
Since commit 611851010c74046c ("fs: dedup handling of struct filename init and refcounts bumps"), the kernel has been refactored to use a new inline function initname(), moving name initialization into it. As a result, the perf probe test can no longer find the source line that matches the defined regular expressions. This causes the script to fail when attempting to add probes. Add a regular expression to search for the call site of initname(). This provides a valid source line number for adding the probe. Keeps the older regular expressions for passing test on older kernels.
