[PATCH] x86: events: Do not return bogus capabilities if PMU is broken

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If the PMU is broken due to firmware issues, check_hw_exists() will return
false but perf_get_x86_pmu_capability() will still return data from x86_pmu.
Likewise if some of the hotplug callbacks cannot be installed the contents
of x86_pmu will not be reverted.

Handle the failure in both cases by clearing x86_pmu if init_hw_perf_events()
or reverts to software events only.
