Don't apply the stimer's counter side effects when modifying its value from user-space, as this may trigger spurious interrupts.
For example:
- The stimer is configured in auto-enable mode.
- The stimer's count is set and the timer enabled.
- The stimer expires, an interrupt is injected.
- The VM is live migrated.
- The stimer config and count are deserialized, auto-enable is ON, the stimer is re-enabled.
- The stimer expires right away, and injects an unwarranted interrupt.
