    x86/vpmu: Remove unnecessary call to do_interrupt()
    
    This call was left during PVHv1 removal (commit 33e5c32559e1 ("x86:
    remove PVHv1 code")):
    
    -        if ( is_pvh_vcpu(sampling) &&
    -             !(vpmu_mode & XENPMU_MODE_ALL) &&
    +        if ( !(vpmu_mode & XENPMU_MODE_ALL) &&
                  !vpmu->arch_vpmu_ops->do_interrupt(regs) )
                 return;
    
    As result of this extra call VPMU no longer works for PV guests on Intel
    because we effectively lose value of MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS.
