Refer ARM DDI 0487G.b, CNTP_CTL_EL0,
ISTATUS, bit [2] - When the value of the ENABLE bit is 1, ISTATUS
indicates whether the timer condition is met.
Thus, one need to check ENABLE bit along with ISTATUS, to confirm
whether the timer condition is met. Further as the doc says,
"When the value of the ENABLE bit is 0, the ISTATUS field is UNKNOWN."
