While debugging another issue with synic timers, it just occurred to me
that with direct timers no extra processing is necessary on EOI: unlike
traditional synic timers which may have failed to deliver a message and
want to be notified when they can retry, direct timers just set the irq
directly in the apic.

So this hunk shouldn't be needed, should it?
