kvm_restore_timer() rebuilds the remaining timer countdown from
vcpu->arch.expire, which is host-internal and is not part of the migrated
vCPU state. On the migration destination it is still 0, so for a one-shot
timer that has not expired yet the computed delta is 0 and
write_gcsr_timertick(0) injects the timer interrupt immediately instead of
after the remaining time.
The expired one-shot case (TVAL = -1) is already handled earlier. When
expire has not been set (i.e. on the migration destination), reload the
remaining countdown from the migrated TVAL. The regular preempt/resume
path on the source, where expire is valid, is unchanged.

Changes in v2:
- Move the expire check before ktime_before() (suggested by Bibo Mao)
- Remove the old else-if branch that was one-shot only.
