Vishal reported that KVM unit test 'x2apic' started failing after commit0e98eb1481("entry: Prepare for deferred hrtimer rearming"). The reason is that KVM/VMX is injecting interrupts while it has interrupts disabled, for a context that will enable interrupts, this means that regs->flags.X86_EFLAGS_IF == 0 and irqentry_exit() will not do the right thing. Notably, irqentry_exit() must not call hrtimer_rearm_deferred() when the return context does not have IF set, because this will cause problems vs NMIs. Therefore, fix up the state after the injection.
