powerpc/time: add API for KVM to re-arm the host timer/decrementer
Rather than have KVM look up the host timer and fiddle with the irq-work internal details, have the powerpc/time.c code provide a function for KVM to re-arm the Linux timer code when exiting a guest. This is implementation has an improvement over existing code of marking a decrementer interrupt as soft-pending if a timer has expired, rather than setting DEC to a -ve value, which tended to cause host timers to take two interrupts (first hdec to exit the guest, then the immediate dec).
