From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx> 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.
