KVM: VMX: remove WARN_ON_ONCE in kvm_vcpu_trigger_posted_interrupt

WARN_ON_ONCE(pi_test_sn(&vmx->pi_desc)) in kvm_vcpu_trigger_posted_interrupt()
intends to detect the violation of invariant that VT-d PI notification
event is not suppressed when vcpu is in the guest mode. Because the
two checks for the target vcpu mode and the target suppress field
cannot be performed atomically, the target vcpu mode may change in
between. If that does happen, WARN_ON_ONCE() here may raise false
alarms.

As the previous patch fixed the real invariant breaker, remove this
WARN_ON_ONCE() to avoid false alarms, and document the allowed cases
instead.
