[PATCH 14/36] KVM: remove the IRQ ACK notifier assertions

[Avi Kivity]

From: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@xxxxxxxxxx>

We will obviously never pass a NULL struct kvm_irq_ack_notifier* to
this functions. They are always embedded in the assigned device
structure, so the assertion add nothing.

The irqchip_in_kernel() assertion is very out of place - clearly
this little abstraction needs to know nothing about the upper
layer details.
