[PATCH 9/9] arm/arm64: KVM: arch timer: Reset CNTV_CTL to 0

[Christoffer Dall]

Provide a better quality of implementation and be architecture compliant
on ARMv7 for the architected timer by resetting the CNTV_CTL to 0 on
reset of the timer, and call kvm_timer_update_state(vcpu) at the same
time, ensuring the timer output is not asserted after, for example, a
PSCI system reset.

This change alone fixes the UEFI reset issue reported by Laszlo back in
February.
