commit 0ea9494be9c931ddbc084ad5e11fda91b554cf47 upstream.

WARN and don't restart the hrtimer if KVM's callback runs with the guest's
APIC timer in periodic mode but with a period of '0', as not advancing the
hrtimer's deadline would put the CPU into an infinite loop of hrtimer
events.  Observing a period of '0' should be impossible, even when the
hrtimer is running on a different CPU than the vCPU, as KVM is supposed to
cancel the hrtimer before changing (or zeroing) the period, e.g. when
switching from periodic to one-shot.
