[patch v3 17/36] x86/xen/hvm: Get rid of DEAD_FROZEN handling

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx at linutronix.de>

No point in this conditional voodoo. Un-initializing the lock mechanism is
safe to be called unconditionally even if it was already invoked when the
CPU died.

Remove the invocation of xen_smp_intr_free() as that has been already
cleaned up in xen_cpu_dead_hvm().
