x86/entry: Don't call error_entry() for XENPV
XENPV guests enter already on the task stack and they can't fault for native_iret() nor native_load_gs_index() since they use their own pvop for IRET and load_gs_index(). A CR3 switch is not needed either. So there is no reason to call error_entry() in XENPV.
