So, trying to use that vmlinux with objdump to do disassembly I found
that I need to do some offsetting, and after calculating it, this made
things works for me:
diff --git a/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c b/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c
index f2d9ff064e2d..9b95754f28ed 100644
--- a/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c
+++ b/tools/perf/util/probe-finder.c

addr += baseaddr;
reloc = true;
goto retry;

With it, which is not a proper fix, of course, we get:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe sys_epoll_wait
Added new events:
probe:sys_epoll_wait (on sys_epoll_wait)
probe:sys_epoll_wait_1 (on sys_epoll_wait)
probe:sys_epoll_wait_2 (on sys_epoll_wait)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe:sys_epoll_wait_2 -aR sleep 1
[root@jouet ~]#
Which, using -v shows it "finding" the alias:
[root@jouet ~]# perf probe -v sys_epoll_wait

Now to figure out why baseaddr is returning as zero...
