SVM AVIC is inhibited if kvm-pit is enabled in the default "reinject"
mode. Commit f5cfdd33cb21 ("x86/apic: Add test config to allow running
apic tests against SVM's AVIC") disabled PIT in xapic test to allow AVIC
to be tested. However, since then, AVIC has been enabled to work in
x2apic mode, but still requires PIT to either be disabled or set to
"discard".
Update x2apic test to disable PIT so that AVIC can be exercized with
x2apic.
