From: Dirk Behme <dirk.behme at de.bosch.com>
On a big.LITTLE system e.g. with Cortex A57 and A53 in case not all cores
are online at PMU probe time we might get
hw perfevents: failed to probe PMU!
hw perfevents: failed to register PMU devices!
making it unclear which cores failed, here.
Add the device tree full name which failed and the error value resulting
in a more verbose and helpful message like
hw perfevents: /soc/pmu_a53: failed to probe PMU! Error -6
hw perfevents: /soc/pmu_a53: failed to register PMU devices! Error -6

Changes in v3: Rebase against Will's perf/updates (8d1a0ae72)
Changes in v2: Use the full node name from DT instead of pmu->name, as if
we fail to find anything in the match table, that'll be NULL. Additionally,
add the error value to get an idea why it failed.
