Fix to show a parse error for bad type (non-string) for $comm/$COMM and
immediate-string. With this fix, error_log file shows appropriate error
message as below.

 /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 'p vfs_read $comm:u32' >> kprobe_events
sh: write error: Invalid argument
 /sys/kernel/tracing # echo 'p vfs_read \"hoge":u32' >> kprobe_events
sh: write error: Invalid argument
 /sys/kernel/tracing # cat error_log
