Explicitly clear TMICT to avoid test_apic_timer_one_shot()
negative failure.
Clear TMICT to disable any enabled but masked local timer.
Otherwise timer interrupt may occur after lvtt_handler() is
set as handler and **before** TDCR or TIMCT is set to new
value, lead this test failure. Log comes from UEFI mode:
PASS: PV IPIs testing
PASS: pending nmi
Got local timer intr before write to TDCR / TMICT
old tmict:0x989680 old lvtt:0x30020 tsc2 - tsc1 = 0xb68
^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^
