KVM: x86: Drop ASSERT()s on APIC/vCPU being non-NULL
Remove ASSERT()s on vCPU and APIC structures being non-NULL in the local APIC code as the DEBUG=1 path of ASSERT() ends with BUG(), i.e. isn't meaningfully better for debugging than a NULL pointer dereference. For all intents and purposes, no functional change intended. Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251206004311.479939-2-seanjc@google.com Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>
