These do not need to be arrays.  You can use a single variable for each
of irr, isr and old_tmr.

Please do not modify the tmr array.  Instead, use kvm_apic_get_reg in
the next patch to read the TMR.

Also, please add a comment about how the code works and why the old TMR
is used if IRR=1 || ISR=1.
