According to the SDM 10.5.4.1: A write of 0 to the initial-count register effectively stops the local APIC timer, in both one-shot and periodic mode. However, the lapic timer oneshot/periodic mode which is emulated by vmx-preemption timer doesn't stop by writing 0 to TMICT since vmx->hv_deadline_tsc is still programmed and the guest will receive the spurious timer interrupt later. This patch fixes it by also cancelling the vmx-preemption timer when writing 0 to the initial-count register.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
