[PATCH] riscv: perf: Drop defining `perf_instruction_pointer()` and `perf_misc_flags()`

From: Lad Prabhakar <prabhakar.mahadev-lad.rj at bp.renesas.com>

With commit 2c47e7a74f44 ("perf/core: Correct perf sampling with guest
VMs"), the perf core now handles the functionality previously requiring
arch-specific definitions of `perf_instruction_pointer()` and
`perf_misc_flags()`. As these definitions are no longer necessary for
RISC-V, this patch removes their implementation and declarations.

This cleanup aligns the RISC-V architecture with the updated perf core
mechanism, reducing code redundancy and improving maintainability.

Fixes: 2c47e7a74f44 ("perf/core: Correct perf sampling with guest VMs")
