When i915 perf interface is not available dereferencing it will lead to
NULL dereferences.

Fix this by using DRM_DEBUG() which the scenario before the commit in
the Fixes tag.

What's that struct drm_device *dev function argument a few lines up? :)

Although TBH all these these could just be removed since I doubt they are adding any value and ENOTSUPP is pretty clear.


Thanks for checking. I will remove the dbg() calls and send a V2.
