KVM: Fix racy event propagation in timer
Minor issue that likely had no practical relevance: the kvm timer
function so far incremented the pending counter and then may reset it
again to 1 in case reinjection was disabled. This opened a small racy
window with the corresponding VCPU loop that may have happened to run
on another (real) CPU and already consumed the value.
Fix it by skipping the incrementation in case pending is already > 0.
This opens a different race windows, but may only rarely cause lost
events in case we do not care about them anyway (!reinject).
