[PATCH] perf/x86: fix RAPL rdmsrl_safe() usage

[Stephane Eranian]

This patch fixes a bug introduced by commit 24223657.

The rdmsrl_safe() function returns 0 on success.
The current code was failing to detect the RAPL PMU
on real hardware  (missing /sys/devices/power) because
the return value of rdmsrl_safe() was misinterpreted.
