right now if there's no CPU support for nmi_watchdog=2 we'll just
refuse it silently.
print a useful warning.

implement nmi_watchdog=2 on this class of CPUs:
cpu family : 15
model : 6
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz
the watchdog's ->setup() method is safe anyway, so if the CPU
cannot support it we'll bail out safely.

Here is a small patch to change the behavior of the PMU msr allocator
to avoid BUG_ON() when the MSR is unknwon. Instead, it now returns
ok, which means "I do not manage". The current allocator is not
yet managing the full set of PMU registers (e.g., GLOBAL_* on Core 2).
[watchdog] do not BUG_ON() in the MSR allocator if MSR is unknown, return ok
instead
