When executing the command "perf list", I met "Error: failed to open
tracing events directory" twice, the first reason is that there is no
"/sys/kernel/tracing/events" directory due to it does not enable the
kernel tracing infrastructure with CONFIG_FTRACE, the second reason
is that there is no root privileges.

Add the error string to tell the users what happened and what should
to do, and also call put_tracing_file() to free events_path a little
later to avoid messy code in the error message.

At the same time, just remove the redundant "/" of the file path in
the function get_tracing_file(), otherwise it shows something like
"/sys/kernel/tracing//events".

Before:

  $ ./perf list
  Error: failed to open tracing events directory

After:

(1) Without CONFIG_FTRACE

  $ ./perf list
  Error: failed to open tracing events directory
  /sys/kernel/tracing/events: No such file or directory

(2) With CONFIG_FTRACE but no root privileges

  $ ./perf list
  Error: failed to open tracing events directory
  /sys/kernel/tracing/events: Permission denied
