[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2] i915/perf: Fix NULL deref bugs with drm_dbg() calls

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

As returning -ENOTSUPP is pretty clear return when perf interface is not
available.

Fixes: 2fec539112e8 ("i915/perf: Replace DRM_DEBUG with driver specific drm_dbg call")

v1 --> v2: Remove the debug calls as they don't add much value and
-ENOTSUPP is a good enough return value.
