Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] KVM: LAPIC: Make lapic timer unpinned

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@...cent.com>

Make lapic timer unpinned when timer is injected by posted-interrupt,
the emulated timer can be offload to the housekeeping cpus, kick after 
setting the pending timer request as alternative to commit 61abdbe0bcc.
