All virtualization capable ARM cores support the ARM architected virtual timer.
This patch adds minimalistic checks whether we can fire a virtual timer event
using them. It does not actually trigger an interrupt yet, as infrastructure
for that is missing. However, it does check whether the timer pin is marked as
pending on the GIC.
