Subject: [PATCH 3/3] x86, perf, uncore: Don't make MSR uncore depend on PCI uncore

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

Several sytems, such as my laptop, don't expose the PCI devices
for the PCI uncore measurements. But the MSRs for the CBOX and ARB
uncores are always available. Currently the init code doesn't
initialize the MSR uncores when the PCI uncore registration fails.
Stop it from doing that and always try to register the MSR uncores.

This makes the pci uncore exit function unused. We'll need it later
when the uncore becomes modular, so instead of removing it I just
marked it with module_exit right now (which discards it)

v2: Avoid registering notifier when both initialization calls fail
