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.
