Subject: [PATCH] KVM: LAPIC: Advancing the timer expiration on guest initiated write

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

Advancing the timer expiration should only be necessary on guest initiated 
writes. Now, we cancel the timer, clear .pending and clear expired_tscdeadline 
at the same time during state restore.
