x86, apic: Clear APIC Timer Initial Count Register on shutdown
Commit a98f8fd (x86: apic reset counter on shutdown) set the counter to max to avoid spurious interrupts when the timer is re-enabled. (In theory) you'll still get a spurious interrupt if spending more than 344 seconds with this interrupt disabled and then unmasking it. The right thing to do is to clear the register. This disables the interrupt from happening (at least it does on AMD hardware).
