[PATCH] x86: fix delta calculation in TSC deadline timer emulation
From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>
In the virtual LAPIC, correct the delta calculation when emulating the
TSC deadline timer.
Without this fix, XenServer (which is based on Xen 4.1) does not work
when running as an HVM guest. dom0 fails to boot because its timer
interrupts are very delayed (by several minutes in some cases).

Hence I''d like to ask that the variable, its initialization, and its sole remaining use (passed to the HVM_DBG_LOG() at the end of the function) be deleted as part of the patch. If you agree, feel free to add my ack when you resend.
