[PATCH 2/3] arm/arm64: KVM: Clear map->active on pend/active clear

When a guest reboots or offlines/onlines CPUs, it is not uncommon for it
to clear the pending and active states of an interrupt through the
emulated VGIC distributor.  However, since we emulate an edge-triggered
based on a level-triggered device, the guest expects the timer interrupt
to hit even after clearing the pending state.

We currently do not signal the VGIC when the map->active field is true,
because it indicates that the guest has already been signalled of the
interrupt as required.  Normally this field is set to false when the
guest deactivates the virtual interrupt through the sync path.

We also need to catch the case where the guest deactivates the interrupt
through the emulated distributor, again allowing guests to boot even if
the original virtual timer signal hit before the guest's GIC
initialization sequence is run.
