hrtimer: Handle failure of tick_init_highres() gracefully
Commit 75e3b37d0598 ("hrtimer: Drop return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres()") drops the return code of hrtimer_switch_to_hres(). While doing so, it also drops the return statement itself on failure. This may cause a system hang. Seen when running arm:multi_v7_defconfig in qemu with devicetree file vexpress-v2p-ca9.
