Since we track vcpus that already called EOI and decrement pending_eoi
only once for each vcpu malicious guest cannot trigger it, but we
already do WARN_ON() in rtc_irq_ack_eoi(), so I am not sure we need
another one here. += will be correct (since pending_eoi == 0 here), but
confusing since it makes an impression that pending_eoi may not be zero.
