Xen devel - Jul 2012 - superfluous "got a timer mode" message?

Hi,

while starting some guests I saw this on my terminal:

got a timer mode string: "no_missed_ticks_pending"

I suppose this is a debug leftover? At least we may want to somehow log 
this instead of doing "fprintf(stderr"  and scare the user?

I actually changed my config file from timer_mode=2 to this one to get 
rid of the warning, now I only got a new "warning" in return...

Replacing fprintf with LOG didn''t help, so I leave it to you to do a 
proper fix ;-)

Regards,
Andre

Indeed, lets remove it.
