x86/oprofile: Fix uninitialized variable use in debug printk

Stephen Rothwell reported this build warning:

  arch/x86/oprofile/op_model_amd.c: In function 'ibs_eilvt_valid':
  arch/x86/oprofile/op_model_amd.c:289: warning: 'offset' may be used uninitialized in this function

And correctly observed that indeed the variable is used uninitialized in
this function. The result of this bug can be a debug printk with a bogus
value.

Also fix a few more small details that made this function hard to read
and which probably contributed to the bug being introduced to begin with:

 - Use more symmetric error conditions

 - Remove the !0 obfuscation

 - Add newlines to the printk output

 - Remove bogus linebreaks in printk strings and elsewhere
