[PATCH v2 22/43] KVM: VMX: Drop unnecessary PI logic to handle impossible conditions

Message-ID <[email protected]>
Drop sanity checks on the validity of the previous pCPU when handling
vCPU block/unlock for posted interrupts.  Barring a code bug or memory
corruption, the sanity checks will never fire, and any code bug that does
trip the WARN is all but guaranteed to completely break posted interrupts,
i.e. should never get anywhere near production.

This is the first of several steps toward eliminating kvm_vcpu.pre_cpu.
