KVM: x86: Remove redundant vm_entry_controls_clearbit() call
When emulating exit from long mode, EFER_LMA is cleared with vmx_set_efer(). This will already unset the VM_ENTRY_IA32E_MODE control bit as requested by SDM, so there is no need to unset VM_ENTRY_IA32E_MODE again in exit_lmode() explicitly. In case EFER isn't supported by hardware, long mode isn't supported, so exit_lmode() cannot be reached. Note that, thanks to the shadow controls mechanism, this change doesn't eliminate vmread or vmwrite.
