kernel/watchdog.c: disable nmi perf event in the error path of enabling watchdog

Browse Source 
In corner cases where softlockup watchdog is not setup successfully, the
relevant nmi perf event for hardlockup watchdog could be disabled, then
the status of the underlying hardware remains unchanged.

Also, if the kthread doesn't start then the hrtimer won't run and the
hardlockup detector will falsely fire.
