[PATCH v3 powerpc] perf/hv-24x7 fail 24x7 initcall if create_events_from_catalog() fails

[Li Zhong]

As Michael pointed out, create_events_from_catalog() fails when 
we either have:
 - a kernel bug
 - some sort of hypervisor misconfiguration
 - ENOMEM

In all the above cases, we can also fail 24x7 initcall. 

For hypervisor errors, EIO is used so there is something reported 
in dmesg.
