perf_event: Make software events work again

Commit 6bde9b6ce0127e2a56228a2071536d422be31336 ("perf: Add
group scheduling transactional APIs") added code to allow a
group to be scheduled in a single transaction.  However, it
introduced a bug in handling events whose pmu does not implement
transactions -- at the end of scheduling in the events in the
group, in the non-transactional case the code now falls through
to the group_error label, and proceeds to unschedule all the
events in the group and return failure.

This fixes it by returning 0 (success) in the non-transactional
case.
