watchdog: Reduce message verbosity
Code is emitting the following error message during boot on systems without PMU hardware support while probing NMI capability. NMI watchdog: Perf event create on CPU 0 failed with -2 This error is emitted as the perf subsystem returns -ENOENT due to lack of PMUs in the system. It is followed by the warning that NMI watchdog is disabled: NMI watchdog: Perf NMI watchdog permanently disabled While NMI disabled information is useful for ordinary users, seeing a PERF event create failed with error code -2 is not. Reduce the message severity to debug so that if debugging is still possible in case the error code returned by perf is required for analysis.
