perf_events: Fix perf buffer watermark setting

Since 2.6.36 (specifically commit d57e34fd ("perf: Simplify the
ring-buffer logic: make perf_buffer_alloc() do everything needed"),
the perf_buffer_init_code() has been mis-setting the buffer watermark
if perf_event_attr.wakeup_events has a non-zero value.

This is because perf_event_attr.wakeup_events is a union with
perf_event_attr.wakeup_watermark.

This commit re-enables the check for perf_event_attr.watermark being
set before continuing with setting a non-default watermark.

This bug is most noticable when you are trying to use PERF_IOC_REFRESH
with a value larger than one and perf_event_attr.wakeup_events is set to
one.  In this case the buffer watermark will be set to 1 and you will
get extraneous POLL_IN overflows rather than POLL_HUP as expected.

[ avoid using attr.wakeup_events when attr.watermark is set ]
