    x86/vmx: Fix IRQ handling for EXIT_REASON_INIT
    
    When receiving an INIT, a prior bugfix tried to ignore the INIT and continue
    onwards.
    
    Unfortunately it's not safe to return at that point in vmx_vmexit_handler().
    Just out of context in the first hunk is a local_irqs_enabled() which is
    depended-upon by the return-to-guest path, causing the following checklock
    failure in debug builds:
    
      (XEN) Error: INIT received - ignoring
      (XEN) CHECKLOCK FAILURE: prev irqsafe: 0, curr irqsafe 1
      (XEN) Xen BUG at common/spinlock.c:132
      (XEN) ----[ Xen-4.19-unstable  x86_64  debug=y  Tainted:     H  ]----
      ...
      (XEN) Xen call trace:
      (XEN)    [<ffff82d040238e10>] R check_lock+0xcd/0xe1
      (XEN)    [<ffff82d040238fe3>] F _spin_lock+0x1b/0x60
      (XEN)    [<ffff82d0402ed6a8>] F pt_update_irq+0x32/0x3bb
      (XEN)    [<ffff82d0402b9632>] F vmx_intr_assist+0x3b/0x51d
      (XEN)    [<ffff82d040206447>] F vmx_asm_vmexit_handler+0xf7/0x210
    
    Luckily, this is benign in release builds.  Accidentally having IRQs 
disabled
    when trying to take an IRQs-on lock isn't a deadlock-vulnerable pattern.
    
    Drop the problematic early return.  In hindsight, it's wrong to skip other
    normal VMExit steps.
    
    Fixes: b1f11273d5a7 ("x86/vmx: Don't spuriously crash the domain when INIT 
is received")
