Several places in perf need to check whether an evsel is a kprobe or uprobe, which requires looking up the PMU by name via evsel__find_pmu(). This lookup walks the PMU list each time, which is wasteful when the same evsel is checked repeatedly. Add evsel__is_kprobe(), evsel__is_uprobe(), and evsel__is_probe() that resolve the probe type on first call via evsel__pmu_name() and cache the result in a 3-bit field (probe_type) in struct evsel. The field fits in existing padding after the bool fields, so struct size does not grow. The enum uses PROBE__UNKNOWN (0) as the uninitialized sentinel — explicitly set in evsel__init() — so the lookup happens on first use. PROBE__NOPE (1) caches "not a probe" to avoid repeated negative lookups. PMU-based probes (kprobe/uprobe PMU) are detected by PMU name. Ftrace-based dynamic probes (created via tracefs, reported as PMU "tracepoint") are detected by the __probe_ip field that the kernel adds to all dynamic probe formats. This covers kprobes, uprobes, and fprobes regardless of their group/system name.
