kvm: remove IA64 ioctls

Browse source 
KVM ia64 is no longer present so new applications shouldn't use them.
The main problem is that they most likely didn't work even before,
because of a conflict in the #defines:

  #define KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG       _IOW(KVMIO,  0x9b, struct kvm_guest_debug)
  #define KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK   _IOW(KVMIO,  0x9b, void *)

The argument to KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is:

  struct kvm_guest_debug {
  	__u32 control;
  	__u32 pad;
  	struct kvm_guest_debug_arch arch;
  };

  struct kvm_guest_debug_arch {
  };

meaning that sizeof(struct kvm_guest_debug) == sizeof(void *) == 8
and KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG == KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK.

KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG is handled in virt/kvm/kvm_main.c before even calling
kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl (which would have handled KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK),
so KVM_IA64_VCPU_SET_STACK would just return -EINVAL.
