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 change also fixes the following build issue on RISC-V:
./include/linux/perf_event.h:1679:84: error: macro "perf_misc_flags" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1
./include/linux/perf_event.h:1679:22: error: 'perf_misc_flags' redeclared as different kind of symbol
./include/linux/perf_event.h:1680:22: error: conflicting types for 'perf_instruction_pointer'; have 'long unsigned int(struct perf_event *, struct pt_regs *)'
The above errors arise from conflicts between the core definitions in
`linux/perf_event.h` and the RISC-V-specific definitions in
`arch/riscv/include/asm/perf_event.h`. Removing the RISC-V-specific
definitions resolves these issues and aligns the architecture with the
updated perf core.
Fixes: 2c47e7a74f44 ("perf/core: Correct perf sampling with guest VMs")
