x86/hw_breakpoints: Make default case in hw_breakpoint_arch_parse() return an error
When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns:
arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:355:2: warning: variable 'align' is used uninitialized whenever switch default is taken [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
The default cannot be reached because arch_build_bp_info() initializes hw->len to one of the specified cases. Nevertheless the warning is valid and returning -EINVAL makes sure that this cannot be broken by future modifications.
