KVM: x86: WARN if hrtimer callback for periodic APIC timer fires with period=0
commit 0ea9494be9c931ddbc084ad5e11fda91b554cf47 upstream. WARN and don't restart the hrtimer if KVM's callback runs with the guest's APIC timer in periodic mode but with a period of '0', as not advancing the hrtimer's deadline would put the CPU into an infinite loop of hrtimer events. Observing a period of '0' should be impossible, even when the hrtimer is running on a different CPU than the vCPU, as KVM is supposed to cancel the hrtimer before changing (or zeroing) the period, e.g. when switching from periodic to one-shot.
