Martin Liška 1bf7d836e5 perf record: Improve error message of -p not_existing_pid
When one uses -p $not_existing_pid, the output of --help is printed:

  $ perf record -p 123456789 2>&1 | head -n3

   Usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
      or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

Let's change it something similar what perf top -p $not_existing_pid
prints:

  $ ./perf top -p 123456789 --stdio
  Error:
  Couldn't create thread/CPU maps: No such process

Newly suggested error message:

  $ ./perf record -p 123456789
  Couldn't create thread/CPU maps: No such process

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
