Remove the unnecessary kick to the vCPU after writing to the vs_file
of IMSIC in kvm_riscv_vcpu_aia_imsic_inject.
For vCPUs that are running, writing to the vs_file directly forwards
the interrupt as an MSI to them and does not need an extra kick.
For vCPUs that are descheduled after emulating WFI, KVM will enable
the guest external interrupt for that vCPU in
kvm_riscv_aia_wakeon_hgei. This means that writing to the vs_file
will cause a guest external interrupt, which will cause KVM to wake
up the vCPU in hgei_interrupt to handle the interrupt properly.
