Subject: x86/paravirt: Remove the unused irq_enable_sysexit pv op
From: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky at oracle.com>
commit 88c15ec90ff16880efab92b519436ee17b198477 upstream.
As result of commit "x86/xen: Avoid fast syscall path for Xen PV
guests", the irq_enable_sysexit pv op is not called by Xen PV guests
anymore and since they were the only ones who used it we can
safely remove it.
