The kvm_xen_inject_vcpu_vector() function has a comment saying "the fast
version will always work for physical unicast", justifying its use of
kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic_fast() and the WARN_ON_ONCE() when that fails.

In fact that assumption isn't true if X2APIC isn't in use by the guest
and there is (8-bit x)APIC ID aliasing. A single "unicast" destination
APIC ID *may* then be delivered to multiple vCPUs. Remove the warning,
and in fact it might as well just call kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic().
