As explained here:
[The] do_meta_boxes [action] is designed to let people manipulate the registered meta boxes once they are registered but before they are rendered.
So the do_meta_boxes hook is not for doing (that is: displaying) the meta boxes. This is because:
When the do_meta_boxes actions was moved out of do_meta_boxes() it should have had its name changed. add_meta_boxes was added in 3.0 to be the hook that we should have renamed do_meta_boxes to be.
