perf/hw_breakpoint: Simplify breakpoint enable in perf_event_modify_breakpoint

We can safely enable the breakpoint back for both the fail and success
paths by checking only the bp->attr.disabled, which either holds the new
'requested' disabled state or the original breakpoint state.

Committer testing:

At the end of the series, the 'perf test' entry introduced as the first
patch now runs to completion without finding the fixed issues:

# perf test "bp modify"
62: x86 bp modify : Ok
#

In verbose mode:

# perf test -v "bp modify"
62: x86 bp modify :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 5161
rip 5950a0, bp_1 0x5950a0
in bp_1
rip 5950a0, bp_1 0x5950a0
in bp_1
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
x86 bp modify: Ok
